Here's a jump-rope rhyme collected in England in 1967:

There came two Spaniards just from Spain,
Talking about your daughter Jane.
My daughter Jane is yet too young
To be controlled by anyone.
Be she young or be she old,
For all the money she must be sold.
Then don't let her gallop. Don't let her trot.
Don't let her play in the mustard pot.

The opening couplets are reminiscent of that song about "The German Officers." Is anybody out there familiar with this rhyme? How far back does it go?
