DUM AND DEE by MOTHER GOOSE

First Line: TWEEDLEDUM AND TWEEDLEDEE / AGREED TO HAVE A BATTLE
Last Line: THEY QUITE FORGOT THEIR QUARREL.

TWEEDLEDUM and Tweedledee
Agreed to have a battle,
For Tweedledum said Tweedledee
Had spoiled his nice new rattle.
Just then flew by a monstrous crow
As big as a tar-barrel,
Which frightened both the heroes so,
They quite forgot their quarrel.
