92 MOTHER GOOSE'S NURSERY RHYMES.
" Oh, then," says Parson Rook, " Who gives this maid away ? "
" I do," says the Goldfinch, " And her fortune I will pay :
" Here's a bag of grain of many sorts, And other things beside: Now happy be the bridegroom, And happy be the bride !"
"And will you have her, Robin,
To be your wedded wife ? " " Yes, I will," says Robin, " And love her all my life!"
"And you will have him, Jenny,
Your husband now to be ?" "Yes, I will," says Jenny, " And love him heartily! "
Then on her finger fair Cock Robin put the ring; "You're married now," says Parson Rook, While the Lark aloud did sing:
" Happy be the bridegroom, And happy be the bride! And may not man, nor bird, nor beast, This happy pair divide!" |
