THE FALSE KNIGHT UPON THE ROAD (4) The knight met a child on the road.. O where are you going to? Said the knight on the road I'm a-going to my school, Said the Child as he stood. He stood and he stood, And it's well because he stood I'm a-going to my school Said the child as he stood. O what are you going there for? For to learn the word of God. O what have you got there? I have got my bread and cheese. O won't you give me some? No, ne'er a bit nor crumb. I wish you was on the sands. Yes, and a good staff in my hands. I wish you was on the sea Yes, and a good boat under me. I think I hear a bell. Yes, and it's ringing you to hell. Child #3 From Sharp and Karpeles, 1932. Collected from Mrs. T.G.
