Monday’s Child by Mother Goose

Monday’s Child is fair of face
Tuesday Child is full of grace
Wednesday’s Child is full of woe
Thursday’s Child has far to go
Friday’s Child is loving and giving
Saturday’s Child works hard for a living
But the Child that is born

On the Sabbath Day,
Is witty and wise and good and happy!
