Mary had a little lamb,

HNR 143

a
Mary had a little lamb,
Its fleece was white as snow;
And everywhere that Mary went
The lamb was sure to go.

b
It followed her to school one day,
That was against the rule;
It made the children laugh and play,
To see a lamb in school.

c
And so the teacher turned it out,
But still it lingered near,
And waited patiently about
Till Mary did appear.

d
Why does the lamb love Marry so?
The eager children cry;
Why, Marry loves the lamb, you know,
The teacher did reply.
