TARGET: Mother Goose

[Gretchen Baldauf <Gbaldauf@AOL.COM>]

I am looking for information about the "hidden" meaning of Mother Goose
rhymes.  For example, "Ring Around the Rosy" is often mentioned as a
reference to the plague.  I would be particularly interested in a source that
would have information about the meanings, as opposed to just what folks
generally have heard.  If you can help, please reply directly to me.  Thanks!
