Description / content note
-
These are traditional children's verses whose meaning is obsecure as, it is believed, they are composite collections of odd lines. But the words sound well and so have survied. a) "The small chicken is angry. You have refused me everything. You have made me cross. It is enough to make me leave you" says the small chicken. b) A counting jingle. c) "I have walked with my sister. I have forgotten my bow and arrows. Go fetch them for me. Why have I given them to someone else (The sister replies) "Shall I brew you some beer? (Reply) "I don't drink beer." Children's verses.
