Nancy Dawson was so fine
Needles and pins, needles and pins -
O that I was where I would be

Of all the gay birds that e'er I did see

Old Dr. Foster went to Gloster

Old King Cole

Old mother Hubbard

Old mother Niddity Nod swore by the pudding-bag

One-ery, two-ery

One misty moisty morning -

One old Oxford ox opening oysters

One's none

One, two, buckle

my shoe

One, two, three

One, two, three, four, five

Over the water, over the lee
PARADOXES

Parson Darby wore a black gown
Pat-a-cake, pat a-cake, baker's man
Pease-porridge hot, pease-porridge cold
Peg, peg, with a wooden leg

Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled pepper
Peter White will ne'er go right

Poor old Robinson Crusoe!
PROVERBS

Purple, yellow, red and green

Pussicat, wussicat, with a white foot

Pussy cat, pussy cat, where have you been?

Queen Anne, queen Anne, you sit in the sun

Riddle me, riddle me, riddle me ree!

See saw, Jack in a hedge
See saw, Margery Daw
See saw, sack-a-day
See saw, sacradown
See! see

what shall I see?

Shake a leg, wag a leg, when will you gang?

Sieve my lady's oatmeal

Simple Simon met a pieman

Sing a song of sixpence

Sing jigmijole, the pudding bowl
Snail, snail, come out of your hole
Solomon Grundy
Some Christian people all give ear -
Some little mice sat in a barn to spin
SONGS

St. Dunstan, as the story goes

St. Swithin's day, if thou dost rain
Taffy was a Welchman, Taffy was a thief

TALES

Tell-tale, tit

The carrion crow he sat upon an oak

The cat sat asleep by the side of the fire

The first day of Christmas -

The fox and his wife, they had a great strife

The king of France went up the hill

The lion and the unicorn

The man in the moon

The man in the moon drinks claret
The quaker's wife got up to bake
The rose is red, the grass is green
The rose is red, the violet's blue

The rule of the road is a paradox quite

The sow came in with the saddle

-

The taylor of Bisiter

There once was a gentleman grand

There was a crooked man, and he went a crooked mile

There was a frog liv'd in a well

There was a man in Thessaly

There was a wee bit wifie

There was a lady all skin and bone

There was a lady lov'd a swine

There was a little boy and a little girl

There was a little guinea-pig

There was a little man

There was a mad man and he had a mad wife

There was a man in our toone

There was an old man

There was an old man, and he liv'd in a wood

There was an old man in a velvet coat

There was an old man who lived in a wood

There was an old man who liv'd in Middle-row
There was an old woman

There was an old woman, and what do
There was an old woman as I've heard tell
There was an old woman had three sons
There was an old woman of Leeds
There was an old woman of Norwich
There was an old woman sat spinning

There was an old woman toss'd up in a blanket
There was an old woman who liv'd in a shoe

There were three jovial Welchmen
There were two birds sat on a stone
There were two blackbirds
Thirty white horses on a red hill
This is the key of the kingdom
This little pig went to market

Thomas a Dydymus, king of the Jews

Three blind mice, three blind mice -

Three children sliding on the ice
Three wise men ef Gotham

To make your candles last for aye
To market ride the gentlemen

Tom Brown's two little Indian boys

Tom he was a piper's son
Tom married a wife on Sunday
Tommy Tibule, Harry Wibule
Tommy Trot, a man of law

Tom, Tom, the piper's son
Trip trap over the grass

Trip upon trenchers and dance upon dishes

Two legs sat upon three legs

Up hill and down dale

We are three brethren out of Spain

We'll go a shooting, says Robin to Bobbin

We make no spare

We're all dry with drinking on't

What care I how black I be?

What is the rhyme for porringer?
When a twister twisting

When I was a little girl

When I went up sandy-hill

Who comes here?

you think?

When good king Arthur ruled this land

When I was a bachelor, I lived by myself
When I was a little boy, I had but little wit
When I was a little boy, my mammy kept me in
