A beautiful rhyme frome whoever? Going on an Errand.
"A Pound of tea
at one and three, And a pot of raspberry
jam, Two new laid eggs, a dozen pegs, And a
pound of rashers of ham."
I'll say it over
all the way, And then I'm sure not to
forget, For if I chance to bring things
wrong, My mother gets in such a pet.
"A
pound of tea at one and three, And a pot of
raspberry jam, Two new laid eggs, a dozen
pegs, And a pound of rashers of
ham."
There in the hay the
children play
- They're having such
jolly fun; I'll go there, too,
that's what I'll do, As soon as my errands are
done.
"A pound of tea at one and three, A
pot of - er - new laid jam! Two raspberry eggs,
with a dozen pegs, And a pound of rashers of
ham."
Now here's the shop, outside I'll
stop, And run through my orders again; I
haven't forgot - no, ne'er a jot - It shows I'm
pretty cute, that's plain.
"A pound of three
at one and tea, A dozen of raspberry ham A
pot of eggs, with a dozen pegs, And a rasher of
new laid jam."
Excellent, I wonder
how many of us did that when we were
little?....
