Ten little soldier boys went out to dine;
One choked his little self and then there were nine.Nine little soldier boys sat up very late;
One overslept himself and then there were eight.Eight little soldier boys travelling in Devon;
One said he'd stay there and then there were seven.Seven little soldier boys chopping up sticks;
One chopped himself in halves and then there were six.Six little soldier boys playing with a hive;
A bumble bee stung one and then there were five.Five little soldier boys going in for law;
One got into chancery and then there were four.Four little soldier boys going out to sea;
A red herring swallowed one and then there were three.Three little soldier boys walking in the zoo;
A big bear hugged one and then there were two.Two little soldier boys sitting in the sun;
One got frizzled up and then there was one.One little soldier boy left all alone;
He went and hanged himselfAnd then there were none.
- Frank Green, 1869
