A little man proposes to a little maid in rhyming, repeating lines, and she wants to know how they will eat before she says yes. The doubled-up endings, wed wed wed, spit spit spit, are great fun to say aloud.
From Mother Goose / Nursery Rhymes (traditional). See the whole collection.
There was a little man,
Who wooed a little maid,
And he said, "Little maid, will you wed, wed, wed?
I have little more to say,
So will you, yea or nay,
For least said is soonest mended-ded, ded, ded."
The little maid replied,
"Should I be your little bride,
Pray what must we have for to eat, eat, eat?
Will the flame that you're so rich in
Light a fire in the kitchen?
Or the little god of love turn the spit, spit, spit?"
