THE PIED PIPER OF HAMELIN


I.

Hamelin Town's in Brunswick,
By famous Hanover city;
The river Weser, deep and wide,
Washes its wall on the southern side;
A pleasanter spot you never spied;
But, when begins my ditty,
Almost five hundred years ago,
To see the townsfolk suffer so
From vermin, was a pity.


II.

Rats!
They fought the dogs and killed the cats,
And bit the babies in the cradles,
