A SAD TALE
Reading edition
Ding, dong, bell! My pretty pussy is drowned, is drowned! Ding, dong, bell! Pussy’s in the well. Who put her in? Little Tommy Lin. Who pulled her out? Great Johnny Stout. What a naughty boy was that, To drown the poor, poor pussy-cat, Who never did him any harm, But killed the mice in his father’s barn. Ding, dong, bell! I am sad, so sad, dear Queen!
