Subject: RE: Folklore: Skipping Rhymes & Playground Games
Hi, I've been trying to find the ending to a rhyme my mothers been trying to remember. I came across this site and thought someone here might know. My mom's 59 now, so the rhyme is from the late 1950's in Lancashire, and it wasn't "bawdy" but one they thought was "funny". The rhyme begins with either: In days of old, when knights were bold, or In days of yore, when knights were poor. If someone could help put my mothers mind at ease, that'd be wonderful!
