11There was an old woman lived under a hill, There was an old woman went up in a basket
22And if she’s not gone, she lives there still, Seventy times as high as the moon,
33Baked apples she sold, and cranberry pies, What she did there I could not but ask it
44She’s the old woman that never told lies. For in her hand she carried a broom.
55 "Old woman, old woman, old woman," said I,
66There was an old woman who lived in a shoe, "Whiter, o whither, o whither so high?"
77She had so many children she didn’t know what to do, "To sweep the cobwebs from the sky,
88She gave them some broth without any bread; And I shall be back again by-and-by."
9She whipped them all soundly and put them to bed.

11There was an old woman called Nothing-at-all,
12Who lived in a dwelling exceedingly small.
13A man stretched his mouth to its utmost extent,
14And down at one gulp house and old woman went.
