Limerick

Isn't this rhyme a limerick? The meter certainly matches. Meeve 09:17, 13 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Exeter clock.

I've been to Exeter, England, and the old clock in the Exeter town square was claimed to be the original Hickory Dickory dock clock (I think it said it next to the clock). Does anyone have proof of this, at least the claim of it? I have a picture of the clock, but not the plaque or anything. -IG-64 08:10, 7 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Two different melodies??

I always knew this song as having the following melody:

E-F-G-F-E-D-E

E-E-G-F-D-E

E-E-E-G

G-F-F-A

G-A-G-F-E-D-C
