AN OLD WOMAN (2) by MOTHER GOOSE

First Line: THERE WAS AN OLD WOMAN / LIVED UNDER A HILL
Last Line: OF A MOUSE IN HIS LIFE.
Subject(s): MICE;

THERE was an old woman
Lived under a hill,
She put a mouse in a bag,
And sent it to the mill.
The miller did swear
By the point of his knife,
He never took toll
Of a mouse in his life.
