And ere the morning stars grew dim
He stiffened out in every limb
So Mother Hubbard buried him

Live not to eat but eat to live

NE Christmas time when old Mother Hubbard
She of the far famed empty cupboard
Sat by her evening fire alone
Wishing she had for her dog a bone
There came a knocking upon the door
And as she hastened across the floor
It flew wide open to her surprise
And oh the vision that met her
eyes
It nearly took away her breath
And frightened her almost half to death
There were people here there were people there
There were pope yonder and everywhere
All were screwing Dear Mrs Hubbard
Weve brought you something to fill your
cupboard I
First came lovely Cinderella
With her prince a handsome fellow
Mother Goose and Simple Simon
In their wake the Penny Pieman
Bluebeard savage and defiant
Jack who often killed a giant
Puss in Boots so trim and nice
Followed by the three blind mice
Then the little naughty- kittens
All in pretty scarlet mittens
Sweet Bopeep and Little Boy Blue
Red Riding Hood and the bad
wolf too
Jack whose bean stalk ran so high
And the old woman who swept the
sky
Jack Florner with his face aglow
The frog who did a wooing go
Dame Trot and all the endless crew
That lived together in a shoe
And many another known to fame
Had I but room to give his name
This much to tell you will suffice
They each and all brought something nice
To fill the cupboard oer and oer
In fact their gifts bestrewed the floor
On every chair and table stood
Some article of daily food

a
Each nook and corner held a dish
Ofeither fowl or flesh or fish
Till Mother Hubbard scarce could find
A resting place for foot or mind
While doggie walked on his hind legs
For fear of breaking pies or eggs
And as for all the company
They had to stand outside you see
Yet as they had to leave quite soon
To see the cow iumD oer the moon
It did not matter in the least
But what about the sumptuous feast
Inside the cottage Must I tell
The fearful ending that befell
The hungry dog who ate and ate
And brought about the cruel fate
It is my duty to relate
For -he who lived upon a bone
Died when with plenty left alone
