The Old Woman In The Basket

: MOTHER GOOSE SONGS AND STORIES
: Boys And Girls Bookshelf

There was an old woman tossed up in a basket,

Nineteen times as high as the moon;

Where she was going I couldn't but ask it

For in her hand she carried a broom.



"Old woman, old woman, old woman, quoth I,

O whither, O whither, O whither so high?"

"To brush the cobwebs off the sky!"

"Shall I go with thee?" "Aye, by-and-by."
