    Who stands yonder?

Nursery Rhyme. DXC. Natural History.

        Goosey, goosey, gander,
        Where shall I wander?
    Up stairs, down stairs,
        And in my lady's chamber;
    There I met an old man
        That would not say his prayers;
    I took him by the left leg,
        And threw him down stairs.

    Gray goose and gander,
        Waft your wings together,
    And carry the good king's daughter
        Over the one strand river.

    See, saw, Margery Daw,
    The old hen flew over the malt house,
    She counted her chickens one by one,
    Still she missed the little white one,
    And this is it, this is it, this is it.

Nursery Rhyme. DXIII. Natural History.

    Pussy-cat, pussy-cat, where have you been?
    I've been up to London to look at the queen.
    Pussy-cat, pussy-cat, what did you there?
    I frighten'd a little mouse under the chair.
