[Ill.u.s.tration: OLD KING COLE.]
Old King Cole Was a merry old soul, And a merry old soul was he!
He called for his pipe, And he called for his bowl, And he called for his fiddlers three.
Every fiddler he had a fiddle, And a very fine fiddle had he!

Oh, there's none so rare As can compare With King Cole and his fiddlers three!
