PE 05 Martin Said To His Man 
                        Thomas Ravenscroft,
                        Traditional English
                        Mentioned 1588,
                        Printed 1609
(Note: Thought to be a satire upon
the relaters of marvellous tales)

Martin said to his man
Fie, man, fie
Martin said to his man
Who's the fool now?
Martin said to his man
Fill thou the cup and I the can
Thou hast well drunken, man
Who's the fool now?

I saw the man in the moon
Cloutin' of St. Peter's shoon

I see a mouse chase a cat
And a cheese eat a rat

I saw the hare chase the hound
Twenty mile above the ground

I saw the goose ring the hog
Saw the snail bite the dog

I saw a flea heave a tree
Twenty mile out to sea

I saw a maid milk a bull
At every stroke a bucket full

Martin said to his man
Fill thou the cup and I the can
