I heard this at a YHA tramping weekend in the 1960s - for some reason I still remember it: Little girl reciting Shakespeare: I know a bank where the wild thyme grows ... Teacher: To the woods!! Now in 2012 I know that it comes from a long line of similar jokes. But where does "to the woods" come from? What was the original joke?
