Little Jack Horner, Jack and Jill, and the Cow that jumped-over the Moon, were verities in the nursery, not to be questioned by the young listeners, who, with open eyes and ears, heard them chanted by loving lips. Some over-wise people have tried to place the dame among the myths, but Mother Goose was a person, and, more than that, a person of Boston, of wealth, and respectability, and warm affection, and sung the songs, or most of them imputed to her, to amuse her own little grand child, in whom she much delighted.
