Polperro Rhymes

Piskeys galore

Polperro Harbour

CHANGELING

See Saw, Margery Daw,

Left her bed and lay in the straw

Left the straw and lay in the hay

Piskey came and took her away.

 

PISKEY LED

Jack the Lantern, Joan the Wad,

Light me home the weather's bad.

 

PISKEY THRESHER

Piskey fine, piskey gay,

Piskey soon will fly away.

 

BATS

Airey mouse, airey mouse fly over my head,

And you shall have a crust of bread,

And when I brew, or when I bake,

You shall have a piece of my wedding cake.

 

THE GIANT'S HEDGE

Jack the giant, with nothing to do,

 Built a hedge from Lerryn to Looe.
