One, Two, Buckle My Shoe

Vedere "Saggio"

One, two, buckle my shoe,
Three, four shut the door,
Five, six pick up sticks,
Seven, eight lay them straight,
Nine, ten a big fat hen.

Eleven, twelve, dig and delve; 
Thirteen, fourteen, maids a courting;
Fifteen, sixteen, maids in the kitchen;
Seventeen, eighteen, maids awaiting;
Nineteen, twenty, my plate's empty.
