We are All in the Dumps with Jack and Guy

We are all in the dumps For diamonds are thumps
The kittens are gone to St. Paul’s! The baby is bit The moon’s in a fit And the houses are built
Without walls

Jack and Guy Went out in the Rye And they found a little boy With one black eye Come says Jack let’s knock
Him on the head No says Guy Let’s buy him some bread You buy one loaf And I’ll buy two And we’ll bring him up
As other folk do

Two traditional rhymes from Mother Goose, ingeniously joined and interpreted by Maurice Sendak.
