I had a little Husband no bigger than my Thumb
This old nursery rhyme is called “I had a little Husband no bigger than my Thumb” — enjoy your reading!
“I had a little husband, no bigger than my thumb;
I put him in a pint pot, and there I bid him drum.
I bought a little horse that galloped up and down;
I saddled him, and bridled him, and sent him out of town.
I gave him some garters, to garter up his hose,
And a little pocket-handkerchief to wipe his pretty nose.”
