Lion and Unicorn
Mother Goose Nursery Rhyme, 1833
The lion and the unicorn
Were fighting for the crown —
The lion beat the unicorn
All about the town.
Some gave them white bread,
And some gave them brown,
Some gave them plum-cake,
And sent them out of town.Note: To this day, the symbolic
British lion
and unicorn rest atop the Old State
House in Boston, with
photos.
