MY LITTLE MAID, by ANONYMOUS First Line: Hey diddle dout / my candle's out Last Line: And some she gave to the truckler's dog | |||
HEY diddle dout, My candle's out, My little maid's not at home; Saddle the hog, And bridle the dog, And fetch my little maid home. Home she came, trittity trot, She asked for the porridge she left in the pot; Some she ate, and some she shod, And some she gave to the truckler's dog. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest..."'TIS MIDNIGHT, AND THE SETTING SUN" by ANONYMOUS "'TWAS ROLLOG, AND THE MINIM POTES" by ANONYMOUS 1648 : FOR COSSACKS by ANONYMOUS A CHERRY YEAR / A MERRY YEAR by ANONYMOUS A COMET FROM THE RHYMERS' CLUB AFAR by ANONYMOUS "A FOX, A FOX, UP GALLANTS TO THE FIELDS" by ANONYMOUS A HORSE AND A FLEA AND THREE BLIND MICE by ANONYMOUS "A LAIRD, A LORD / A COOPER, A THIEF" by ANONYMOUS A LITTLE COCK SPARROW SAT ON A GREEN TREE by ANONYMOUS |
