  1. High diddle, diddle the cat and the fiddle,
    The cow jumped over the moon
    The little dog laughed to see such fun,
    And the dish ran away with the spoon.
    Margaret Kenny.

  2. Ding, Dong, Dill,
    Pussy in the well,
    Who put him in,
    Little Tomy Flynn,
    Wasn't that a naughty thing.
    To try to drown the poor pussy cat.
