And Wickedness eleven.
LXXXIV.Three straws on a staff,
Would make a baby cry and laugh.
LXXXV.See a pin and pick it up,
All the day you'll have good luck;
See a pin and let it lay,
Bad luck you'll have all the day!
LXXXVI.Go to bed first, a golden purse;
Go to bed second, a golden pheasant;
Go to bed third, a golden bird!
[page 70] LXXXVII.When the wind is in the east,
'Tis neither good for man nor beast;

When the wind is in the west,
Then 'tis at the very best.
LXXXVIII.Bounce Buckram, velvet's dear;

There are several Jack tales
Good old book for browsing if one likes fairytales and nursery rhymes! The old familiars are in here along with some not so known ones. I love, and collect nursery rhymes and fairy tales, so this was a great find and a wonderful read!
