Text Appearing Before Image:
well,That none of the party were fat. Old Mother Goose, when^She wanted to wander, Would ride through the airOn a very fine gander. Mother Goose had a house,Twas built in a wood, Where an owl at the doorFor sentinel stood. This is her son Jack,A plain-looking lad ; He is not very good.Nor yet very bad. She sent him to market,A live goose he bought,• Here, Mother, says he, It will not go for nought. Jacks goose and her ganderGrew very fond; 88 Mother Gooses Melodies, Theyd both eat together,Or swim in one pond. Jack found one morning,i\s I have been told, His goose had laid himAn ^^^ of pure gold. Jack rode to his mother,The news for to tell; She called him a good boy.And said it was well. Jack sold his gold ^^^To a rogue of a Jew, Who cheated him out ofThe half of his due. Then Jack went a-courting A lady so gay.As fair as the lily, And sweet as the May. The Jew and the SquireCame behind his back. And began to belaborThe sides of poor Jack. The old Mother GooseThat instant came in.

Jacks Mother came in, And caught the goose soon.And, mounting its back, Flew up to the moon. Old Mother HubbardWent to the cupboard, To get her poor dog a bone;But when she came there,The cupboard was bare, And so the poor dog had none. 90 Mother Gooses Melodies. She went to the bakersTo buy him some bread; But when she came back.The poor dog was dead. She went to the joinersTo buy him a coffin ;But when she came back,rhe poor dog was laughing. She took a clean dishTo get him some tripe ; But when she came back,He was smoking his pipe. She went to the fishmongersTo buy him some fish ; And when she came back.He was licking the dish. She
