  THREE JOVIAL HUNTSMEN  

There were three jovial huntsmen,
    As I have heard them say,
And they would go a-hunting
    All on a summer's day.

All the day they hunted,
    And nothing could they find
But a ship a-sailing,
    A-sailing with the wind.

One said it was a ship,
    The other said Nay;
The third said it was a house
    With the chimney blown away.

And all the night they hunted,
    And nothing could they find;
But the moon a-gliding,
    A-gliding with the wind.

One said it was the moon,
    The other said Nay;
The third said it was a cheese,
    And half o't cut away.

                                         Unknown.
