Early To Bed, And Early To Rise


Cocks crow in the morn
to tell us to rise:
and he who lies late
will never be wise.

For early to bed
and early to rise
is the way to be healthy
wealthy and wise.

The cock doth crow
to let you know
if you be wise
'tis time to rise.

Elsie Marley's Grown So Fine


Elsie Marley's grown so fine,
She won't get up to feed the swine,
But lies in bed 'till eight or nine!
Lazy Elsie Marley.
