HARRY'S LADDER TO LEARNING. PART III. HARRY'S NURSERY SONGS.
NURSERY SONGS.
Rock-a-bye, baby, thy cradle is green;Father's a nobleman, mother's a queen;And Betty's a lady, and wears a gold ring;And Harry's a drummer, and drums for the king.
Hush-a-bye, baby, on the tree-top!When the wind blows, the cradle will rock;When the bough breaks, the cradle will fall,Down will come baby, cradle, and all.
Bye, oh, my baby...!
