A LITTLE MAID by ANONYMOUS

First Line: "THERE WAS A LITTLE MAID, AND SHE WAS AFRAID"
Last Line: AND FASTENED THE DOOR WITH A SKEWER

THERE was a little maid, and she was afraid
That her sweetheart would come unto her;
So she went to bed, and covered up her head,
And fastened the door with a skewer.
