Knowing the words we were looking for definitely made today’s threads an easier task. But despite the fact that it was the most obvious and easiest word to discover, I still found the opposite.
I’m sure we all had the kindergarten rhyme (or as some people may know, Roud Folk Song Index Number 19626) To walk around our heads as we searched for the different things that Mary liked to put up in her garden – namely silver bells and cockleshells and beautiful girls all in a row.
Like many kindergartens, this is one with macabre origin; Although they are disputed, many scholars believe that the words refer to Mary Queen of Scots, with the garden representing a cemetery filled with all the people who dared to disturb her.
Then it could just as easily be about a woman named Mary who liked to stick shells in her garden.
How did you do today? Tell me that in the comments below.
