Wolfgang--

The first one is a nursery rhyme from Mother Goose, hence the Mots d'heures gousses rames. It's called Hickory Dickory Dock, so you won't find it, I don't think, in the DT! I really appreciate the direction this thread has taken--so much of what we say, write, and sing is culturally encoded!

MY consciousness has been raised!
