Little Miss Muffet

Muffeta puella
Sedet in cella
Cum cibo exquisito
Aeranea intrat
Et prope sedet
Puella clammat
Oh!

bobc, did you have a beginning Latin text with that poem as well as Humptus Dumptus? I can't remember what it was called, but I'd love to find one.

I didn't even know such books existed! Children's poetry into latin!

I don't know if any books exist, but I'm sure from that latin text you could use some of it to search on Google or AllTheWeb to find more examples!

Hi babybunting

I think the book that I had was called Living Latin. It had a bergundy cover but it didn't have the poems. It was authored by R. Rutheford H. Page who just happened to be the principal of the school that I was at in Toronto at the time.

It appears that you have just exposed my old Latin teacher, Mr. Payne. I thought he made up the poems (the translations) himself. As a result muffeta puella is not trustworthy for spelling. What I offered is the way I remember it sounding.

Right, Humptus Dumptus in muro sedet.
(after all, Humptus was singular).
