I had a Little Castle Upon the Sea-Side
The Nursery Rhymes of England. James Orchard Halliwell-Phillipps. 1886.
I had a little castle upon the sea-side,
One half was water, the other was land;
I open'd my little castle door, and guess what I found;
I found a fair lady with a cup in her hand.
The cup was gold, filled with wine;
Drink, fair lady, and thou shalt be mine!
