Mondegreen’s! Whoohoo! 17th-century ballad "The Bonny Earl O’Moray as remembered by American writer Sylvia Wright: "When I was a child, my mother used to read aloud to me from Percy’s Reliques, and one of my favorite poems began, as I remember:
Ye Highlands and ye Lowlands,Oh, where hae ye been?They hae slain the Earl O’ Moray,And Lady Mondegreen."
The actual fourth line is “And laid him on the green”. ( fromhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mondegreen)
“Gladly the cross-eyed bear”
“Our Father who art in heaven, Howard be Thy Name”

But I don’t get the bottom one.
