Nursery Rhyme. CCCCXXXVI. Jingles.
By Unknown
[Magotty-pie is given in MS. Lands. 1033, fol. 2, as a Wiltshire word for a magpie. See also 'Macbeth,' act iii, sc. 4. The same term occurs in the dictionaries of Hollyband, Cotgrave, and Minsheu.]
Round about, round about,
Magotty-pie,
My father loves good ale,
And so do I.
