The queen of hearts (1881)

The queen of hearts 1881 illustration

The Queen of Hearts, she made some tarts,
All on a summer's day:
The Knave of Hearts, he stole those tarts,
And took them right away.
The King of Hearts, called for those tarts,
And beat the Knave full sore:
The Knave of Hearts, brought back those tarts,
And vowed he'd steal no more.
