Nursery Rhymes -- two illustrations. Above -- There was an old woman, as I've heard tell, she went to market her eggs for to sell; she went to market all on a market day, and she fell asleep upon the King's Highway. There came by a pedlar whose name was Stout, he cut her petticoats all round about; he cut her petticoats up to her knees, which made the little old woman to shiver and freeze. Below -- a mouse-drawn cart
