OLD 
 
 OTHER GOOSE 
 
 j^nd the Golden Egg^ 
 
 Old Mother Goose, 
 
 When she wanted to wander. 
 Would ride through the air, 
 
 On a very fine o;ander. 
 
OLD MOTHER GOOSE. 
 
 Jack found one morning, 
 As I have been told, 
 
 His goose had laid him 
 An egg of pm-e gold. 
 
 Jack run to his mother, 
 The news for to tell, 
 
 She called him a good bo}^, 
 And said it was w^ell.

OLD MOTHER GOOSE. 
 
 Jack sold his gold egg, 
 To a rogue of a Jew, 
 
 Who cheated him out of 
 The half of his due. 
 
 Then Jack went a courting, 
 
 A lady so gay, 
 As fair as the lily, 
 
 As sweet as the Mav. 
 
OLD MOTHER GOOSE. 
 
 The Jew and the Squire 
 Came behind his back, 
 
 Then old Mother Goose, 
 That instant came in, 
 
 And turned her son Jack 
 Into fam'd Harlequin. 
 
 OLD MOTHER GOOSE. 
 
 She sent him to market, 
 A live goose he bought. 
 
 Here, mother, says he, 
 It will not go for naught. 
 
 Jack's goose and her gander. 
 
 Crew very fond, 
 They'd both eat together 
 
 Or swim in one pond. 
 
OLD MOTHER GOOSE. 
 
 Mother Goose had a house 
 'Twas built in a wood, 
 
 Where an owl at the door 
 For a sentinel stood. 
 
 This is her son Jack, 
 
 A plain looking lad, 
 He's not very good, 
 - Nor yet very bad 
 
 OLD MOTHER GOOSE. 
 
 She then with her wand, 
 ' ..Touch'd the lady so fine, 
 And turned her at once 
 Into sweet Columbine. 
 
 The gold egg into the sea 
 
 Was thrown then, 
 When an odd fish brought 
 Him the egg back again. 
 
OLD MOTHER GOOSE. 
 
 The Jew got the goose. 
 
 Which lie vow'd he would kill 
 Resolving at once 
 -is pockets to fill. 
 
 Jack's mother came in. 
 
 And caught the goose soon, 
 
 And mounting its back 
 Flew up to the moon.
