[Illustration]
Old Mother Hubbard
Went to the Cupboard,
To give the poor Dog a bone.
When she came there,
The Cupboard was bare,
And so the poor Dog had none.
[Illustration]
She went to the Baker's
To buy him some bread;
When she came back
The Dog was dead!
[Illustration]
She went to the Undertaker's
To buy him a Coffin;
When she came back
The Dog was laughing.
[Illustration]
She took a clean dish
To get him some tripe;
When she came back
He was smoking his pipe.
[Illustration]
She went to the Alehouse
To get him some beer;
When she came back
The Dog sat in a Chair.
[Illustration]
She went to the Tavern
For white wine and red;
When she came back
The Dog stood on his head.
[Illustration]
She went to the Fruiterer's
To buy him some fruit;
When she came back
He was playing the flute.
[Illustration]
She went to the Taylor's
To buy him a coat;
When she came back
He was riding a goat.
[Illustration]
She went to the Hatter's
To buy him a hat;
When she came back
He was feeding her Cat.
[Illustration]
She went to the Barber's
To buy him a wig;
When she came back
He was dancing a jig.
[Illustration]
She went to the Cobbler's
To buy him some shoes;
When she came back
He was reading the news.
[Illustration]
She went to the Sempstress
To buy him some linen;
When she came back
The Dog was spinning.
[Illustration]
She went to the Hosier's
To buy him some hose;
When she came back
He was drest in his clothes.
[Illustration]
The Dame made a courtesy,
The Dog made a bow;
The Dame said, Your servant,
The Dog said, Bow-wow.
[Illustration]
This wonderful Dog
Was Dame Hubbard's delight,
He could Read, he could Dance,
He could Sing, he could Write;
She gave him rich dainties
Whenever he fed,
And erected this Monument
When he was dead.
