KING ARTHUR
Reading edition
When good King Arthur ruled the land, He was a goodly king: He stole three pecks of barley meal, To make a bag-pudding.
A bag-pudding the king did make, And stuffed it well with plums; And in it put great lumps of fat, As big as my two thumbs.
The king and queen did eat thereof, And noblemen beside; And what they could not eat that night, The queen next morning fried.
