August 27. Story of the Day: God Made Man.

This is a little rhyme about God's creation that I found in English Folk-Rhymes by G. F. Northall.

This is Roud 11065.

GOD MADE MAN

God made man, man made money;
God made bees, the bees made honey:

God made a little man to plough and to sow,
God made a boy to keep away the crow;

God made a woman to brew and bake;
God made a little maid to eat a plum cake.
