鹅妈妈童谣 55 There Was An Old Woman

（单词翻译）

There Was An Old Woman

There was an old woman tossed¹ up in a basket

Nineteen times as high as the moon;

Where she was going I couldn't but ask it,

For in her hand she carried a broom.

"Old woman, old woman, old woman," quoth I,

"O whither, O whither, O whither, so high?"

"To brush the cobwebs off the sky!"

"Shall I go with thee?" "Aye, by and by."
