About Three Blind Mice (round)

Words: traditional

Tune: traditional, as printed in Home Songs (Oliver Ditson, 1906)

Three Blind Mice is the nursery round almost everyone knows. In 1886 a reader of Notes and Queries called it "the school round" and quoted the words in all the printed copies he had met, "They all ran after the farmer's wife". Our round is read from Home Songs, a Boston book of 1906 of songs, hymns and rounds, which prints it in four parts, with its words "She cut off their tails" and "Did ever you see such a sight", a whole tone lower, in C. Here it is for 2 to 4 singers: everyone sings it twice, entering four bars apart, with the tenor and bass an octave lower, and the parts tumble over each other.
