Lady Fall Is Passing By!

Lady Fall’s Harvest Ride

 On harvest chariot piled sky high

Lady Fall is passing by

With garnered fruits and wealth untold

Of royal purple mixed with gold.

 

To Lady Summer’s farewell nod

She waves a plume of Goldenrod,

And as the birds fly south again,

She cries, “Good-bye, auf Wiedersehen.”

The Pumpkin Eater Was A Bad Husband!

Peter, Peter, pumpkin eater,

Had a wife and couldn’t keep her;

He put her in a pumpkin shell,

And then he kept her very well.

 

Peter, Peter, pumpkin eater,

Had another, and didn’t love her;

Peter learned to read and spell,

And then he loved her very well.

Cinderella – Pumpkin is a Coach, Mice are prancing steeds, Rat is the coachman, Lizards are footmen!

“Now, Cinderella, here’s your coach to take you to the ball.”
The Three Bears’ Picture Book
Illustrated by Walter Crane
Publisher: George Routledge and Sons: London & New York. Ca 1890-1899.

“Now fetch the mouse-trap from the shelf – there are six mice inside;”

She changed them to six prancing steeds, all harnessed side by side.

“Now fetch the rat-trap,” and there was therein a large black rat,

So he was made a coachman, with silk stockings and cocked hat.

Six lizards happening to be there, all ready to the hand,

Were changed to powdered footmen, staff and bouquet all so grand.

“Now, Cinderella, here’s your coach to take you to the ball.”

“Not as I am,” she cried; “like this I cannot go at all.”
