Ruth Manning-Sanders Quotes
His Father Is Out Cutting Wood, So He Goes To His Mother.
'Mother, I Must Away And See The World, Or I Shall Go Mad.'
Says His Mother, 'If You Must Go, Go You Must, And God Go With You! I Will Bake You A Cake. Will You Have A Little Cake With My Blessing, Or A Big Cake With My Cursing?'
Says Jack, 'Make Me A Big Cake, Mother. It Will Last Longer.'
His Mother Makes Him A Big Cake, And He Sets Out. And She Is Standing On The Roof Of The House, Calling Curses After Him As Far As She Can See Him.
