This is a children's rhyme, "Ten Little Vegetables Jumping on the Bed," with a repetitive structure. The narrative begins with ten vegetables jumping on a bed, with each one falling off and bumping their head. When the doctor is called, he advises against more vegetables jumping on the bed. This pattern continues with nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, and finally one little vegetable.
After the vegetables, a similar rhyme follows with shapes: "Ten Little Shapes Jumping on the Bed." The same pattern applies, with each shape falling off the bed after the doctor's advice.
Finally, the narrative goes through the same pattern with the shapes, but with a different command: "Roll over, roll over." Each shape rolls over and falls out one by one, starting from ten down to one. The last line is "One there was one in the bed and the little one said good night."
