Here's a name for you... from another version via Amy Stewart Fraser, Dae Ye Min' Langsyne? A Pot pourri of Games, Rhymes and Plays of Scottish Childhood, London: Routledge & Kegan Paul, 1975, p. 113 as follows:
Queen Anne, Queen Anne sits in her sedan, Fair as a lily, white as a swan, A pair of white [green] gloves are over her hands And she is the fairest in all the land. [Come] buy [taste] my lilies, [come] buy [smell] my roses, Make them into pretty posies For the maiden you will choose.

Fair as a lily, white as a swan,
A pair of white [green] gloves are over her hands
And she is the fairest in all the land.
[Come] buy [taste] my lilies, [come] buy [smell] my roses,
Make them into pretty posies
For the maiden you will choose.
