Hi,

TY Steve. The nursery rhymes are also used as singing games in multiple examples. Clearly the nursery rhymes are shortened versions of Madam with game instructions and are different than the standard children's games and skipping games which is the focus of the study. The standard identifying stanza for types 3-7 is:

On the mountain stands a lady,
Who she is I do not know;
All she wants is gold and silver,
And a nice young man.

The study is too long to put here (I posted the first page or two)-- and it's not completed until I put the individual versions on.

I realize in general the two are different/separate, so thank you-- I'll try and make that clear.
