<span class="i0">The moon is shining o'er the field,<br/></span>
<span class="i1">A little breeze is blowing,<br/></span>

<span class="i1">The lettuces are growing.<br/></span></div>
<div class="stanza">
<span class="i0">The owl is in the ivy-bush,<br/></span>
<span class="i1">With both his eyes a-winking;<br/></span>
<span class="i0">The rabbit shakes his little tail,<br/></span>
<span class="i1">And sits him down a-thinking—<br/></span></div>
<div class="stanza">
<span class="i0">"Oh! where are all the dormice gone?<br/></span>
<span class="i1">And are the frogs a-wooing?<br/></span>
<span class="i0">Will no one come to play with me?<br/></span>
<span class="i1">What are they all a-doing?"<br/></span></div>
<div class="stanza">
<span class="i0">Poor little rabbit, all alone,<br/></span>
<span class="i1">Don't let the master meet you;<br/></span>

<span class="i1">And merrily he'll eat you!<br/></span></div>
