A Diller, A Dollar
A Diller, A Dollar
Nursery Rhyme
A diller, a dollar,
A ten o'clock scholar,
What makes you come so soon?
You used to come at ten o'clock,
And now you come at noon.
Notes
Here's a slightly different version from The Little Mother Goose (1912), illustrated by Jessie Willcox Smith:
A diller, a dollar,
A ten o'clock scholar,
What makes you come so soon?
You used to come at ten o'clock,
But now you come at noon.
