THE MAN IN OUR TOWN, The Real Mother Goose Nursery Rhyme Illustration by Blanche Fisher Wright circa 1915


There was a man in our town, And he was wondrous wise, He jumped into a bramble bush, And scratched out both his eyes; But when he saw his eyes were out, With all his might and main, He jumped into another bush, And scratched 'em in again.
