PETER PATTER told them to me,<br />
All the little rimes,<br />
Whispered them among the bushes<br />
Half a hundred times.<br /><br />

Peter lives upon a mountain<br />
Pretty near the sun,<br />
Knows the bears and birds and rabbits<br />
Nearly every one;<br />
Has a home among the alders,<br />
Bed of cedar bark,<br />
Walks alone beneath the pine trees<br />
Even when it’s dark.<br /><br />

Squirrels tell him everything<br />
That happens in the trees,<br />
Cricket in the gander-grass<br
