[There was a rare boy who fell ill]
There was a rare boy who fell ill,And begged them to give him a pill;
“For my kind parents' sake,
The dose I will take,”
Said this rare little boy who fell ill.
[There was an old doctor of Brille]
There was an old doctor of Brille,Who gave all his patients a pill.
“It will cure 'em,” he said,
Or else kill 'em dead”—
This skilful old doctor of Brille.
