T. WOOD, 28, Strand. =JACK & JILL.= [Illustration] [Illustration] Jack and Jill went up the hill, To fetch a pail of water, Jack fell down and broke his crown, And Jill came tumbling after, Then up Jack got And home did trot, As fast as he could scamper, Dame Jill did the job, To plaster his nob With vinegar and brown paper. [Illustration] Then Jill came in And she did grin, To see Jack’s paper plaster. Her mother whipped her Across her knee, For laughing at Jack’s disaster. Hearing the rout Dame Jill came out, With a horse-from the door, She laid it on Jack And on Jill’s back Until they both did roar. [Illustration] Ball held sow’s ear, And both in rear, Ran against the Dame and hit her That she did fall, Over the sow and Ball, How Jack and Jill did titter. Dame Jill did grin, As she went in, Will Goat came by, And made Jack cry, And knocked him on his back [Illustration] Then the next thing, They made a swing, But Jill set up a big cry, For the swing gave way In the midst of the play, And threw her in the pigstye. Now Jack did laugh, And Jill did cry, But her tears did soon abate; Then Jack did say, That they would play, A see-saw across the gate. [Illustration] They see-saw’d high They see-saw’d low, At length they both did tumble; We both are down, We both must own, Let neither of us grumble. This made Jill pout And she ran out, And Jack did quickly follow; They rode dog Ball, Jill got a fall How Jack did laugh and hallo. [Illustration] The Dame came out To know all about, Jill says that Jack was saucy, Say’s Jill I’ll tell, How that Jack fell Down on the pavement causey. The sow came by, Says Jack I’ll try If I can ride the prancer, He gave a jump On old sow’s rump, But she led him a droll dance Sir. [Illustration] Sow ran and squalled, While Jack he bawled, Jill joined in the choir, Dog Ball being near Bit sow by the ear, And threw Jack in the mire. [Illustration] And now all three, Went out to see, To put the place to rights all, Which done they sup, Then drink a cup, And wish you a good night all.
