Nursery Rhyme. CXLVI. Songs.

    By Unknown



            [From 'Histrio-mastix, or, the Player Whipt,' 4to, Lond. 1610. Mr. Rimbault tells me this is common in Yorkshire.]

                Some up, and some down,
                There's players in the town,
        You wot well who they be;
                The sun doth arise,
                To three companies,
        One, two, three, four, make wee!

                Besides we that travel,
                With pumps full of gravel,
        Made all of such running leather:
                That once in a week,
                New masters we seek,
        And never can hold together.
