In Marble Halls

A Nick and a Nock

A nick and a nock,
A hen and a cock,
And a penny for my master.

Pancake Day

Great A, little A,
This is pancake day;
Toss the ball high,
Throw the ball low,
Those that come after
May sing heigh-ho!

Hush-a-Bye Baby

Hush-a-bye, baby,
On the tree top,
When the wind blows,
The cradle will rock;

When the bough breaks,
The cradle will fall,
Down tumbles baby,
Cradle, and all.

IN marble halls as white as milk,
Lined with a skin as soft as silk;

Within a fountain crystal clear,
A golden apple doth appear;

No doors there are to this stronghold,
Yet thieves break in and steal the gold.
