All A Lonely

Based on an old English poem.

        All, all a-lonely:

   Three little children sitting on the sand,
   All, all a-lonely,
   Three little children sitting in the sand,
   All, all a-lonely
   Down in the green wood shady―

  There came an old woman, said Come on with me,
   All, all a-lonely,
   There came an old women, said Come on with me,
   All, all a-lonely,
   Down in the green wood shady―

  She stuck her pen-knife through their heart,
  All, all a-lonely,
   She stuck her pen-knife through their heart,
   All, all a-lonely,
   Down in the green wood shady―
