. Cradle songs . A ROGUE. To tell you an-y-thingmore. A TALE OF A BOT-TLE. Mam-ma runs a-way from theta-ble,And catch-es the girl atthe door —And now, oh! I know Imnot a-bleTo tell you an-y-thing more. A WONDERFUL SCHOLAR O, a wonderful scholarIs our little Kate!She reads in a. primer ; She writes on a slate ;Her lines are not even; Her Os are not round;And her words in the reader Could not be found. A WONDERFUL SCHOLAR. Her sewing — what puckers!What stitches! what knotsAnd along the whole hem,. There are tiny red spots•Her weekly reports Tell how oft she has spoken ;And theres not a rule That she never has broken Yet she comes to mammaFor a smile and a kiss, A WONDERFUL SCHOLAR. As if a bad mark, Should be paid for by this. And she cries in delight, While she swings round her hat Im a wonderful scholar, For I can spell cat! C-A-T, Cat! OUT IN THE MEADOW. What do you think I saw to-dayOut in the meadow bright,It tripped along on four little feetIn a coat all woolly and white; I said Good morning, you pretty thing ! And it raised its gentle headAs if it wanted to chat awhile ;But, Baa-Baa was all it said! What do you think I led with me,Blue eyed, dimpled, and sweet? OUT IN THE MEADOW. It hardly bent the daisies downWith two little toddling feet; She laughed and chattered at Woolly-back,She patted his little head ;But he talked almost as well as she,For ma-ma was all she said!
