"THE ROSE IS RED, THE GRASS IS GREEN" by ANONYMOUS

Last Line: AND SEE THE CAT PLAY WITH THE DOG

THE rose is red, the grass is green,
Serve Queen Bess our noble queen.
Kitty the spinner
Will sit down to dinner,
And eat the leg of a frog:
All you good people
Look over the steeple,
And see the cat play with the dog.
