Robin, the Bobbin
More About Jack Jingle
NOW what do you think
Of little Jack Jingle?
Before he was married
He used to live single.
Robin, the Bobbin, the bouncing Ben,
He ate more meat than fourscore men;
He ate a cow, he ate a calf,
He ate a butcher and a half;
He ate a church, he ate a steeple,
He ate the priest, and all the people!
