I watched a very good Mirthy Webinar. There are many nursery rhymes in the English language. Usually, we heard them from the mouth of our mother or grandmother. But many of them have come from the pens of men in times gone by. They carry a hidden message from history. It was dangerous to criticise your leaders. You could be imprisoned or beheaded. Cornishmen Thomas Flamank and Michael Joseph An Gof were cruelly executed in 1497 by Henry VII and the authorities in England for leading a rebellion. Many more died too. There was great resentment against the Tudors for many years. Henry VIII, Mary, Elizabeth - they set Protestants against Catholics. They (and their victims) are found disguised in nursery rhymes. Three blind mice? Three archbishops. The farmers wife? Mary (married to the farmer Spanish Phillip). Silver bells, cockle shells and pretty maids? Instruments of torture (Mary again!).
