From the Preface: "UCH might be said in favour of this colle&ion, but as we have no room for critical disquisitions we shall only observe to our readers, that the custom of singing these songs and lullabies to children is of great antiquity: It is even as old as the time of the ancient Druids. Cara&acus King of the Britons, was rocked in his cradle in the isle of Mona, now called Anglesea, and tuned to sleep by some of these soporiferous sonnets. As the best things, however, may be made an ill use of, so this kind of composition has been employed in a satirical manner; of which we have a remarkable instance so far back as the reign of king Henry the fifth. When that great prince turned his arms against France, he composed the following march to lead his troops to battle, well knowing that musick had often the power of inspiring courage, especially in the mind of good men. ... some of the malecontents adopted ... words to the king's own march, in order to ridicule his majesty, and to shew the folly and impossibility of his undertaking. ... the king is represented as an old woman, engaged in a pursuit the moil absurd and extravagant imaginable; but when he had routed the whole French army at the battle of Agincourt, taking their king and the flower of their nobility prisoners, ... the very men who had ridiculed him before began to think nothing was too arduous for him to surmount, they therefore cancelled the former sonnet, which they were now ashamed of, and substituted [a new song] ... When this was shewn to his majesty he smilingly said, that folly always dealt in extravagancies, and that knaves sometimes put on the garb of fools to promote in that disguise their own wicked designs. " The flattery " in the last (says he) is more insulting than the impudence of the first, and to weak minds might do more mischief." "We cannot conclude without observing, the great probability there is that the custom of making Nonsense Verses in our schools was borrowed from this pra&ice among the old British nurses; they have, indeed, been always the first preceptors of the youth of this kingdom, and from them the rudiments of taste and learning are naturally derived." Caution to parents: The nursery rhymes and songs in this book were written for the children of the 18th Century; 21st Century children may be unsettled or disturbed by some of the images in the rhymes. Parents should read these nursery rhymes with their children, and help them to understand the history, traditions, and cultures of those times. This is a reproduction of a public domain work.

The figure of Mother Goose is the imaginary author of a collection of French fairy tales and later of English nursery rhymes. As a character, she appeared in a song, the first stanza of which often functions now as a nursery rhyme. This, however, was dependent on a Christmas pantomime, a successor to which is still performed in the United Kingdom. The term's appearance in English dates back to the early 18th century, when Charles Perrault's fairy tale collection, Contes de ma Mère l'Oye, was first translated into English as Tales of My Mother Goose. Later a compilation of English nursery rhymes, titled Mother Goose's Melody, or, Sonnets for the Cradle, helped perpetuate the name both in Britain and the United States.

A nursery rhyme is a traditional poem or song for children in Britain and many other countries, but usage of the term only dates from the late 18th/early 19th century. The term Mother Goose rhymes is interchangeable with nursery rhymes. From the mid-16th century nursery rhymes begin to be recorded in English plays, and most popular rhymes date from the 17th and 18th centuries.The first English collections, Tommy Thumb's Song Book and a sequel, Tommy Thumb's Pretty Song Book, were published by Mary Cooper in 1744. Publisher John Newbery's stepson, Thomas Carnan, was the first to use the term Mother Goose for nursery rhymes when he published a compilation of English rhymes, Mother Goose's Melody, or, Sonnets for the Cradle (London, 1780).
