這是一個英語童謠和故事,很多人小時候都知道的.
是法國大革命時期的歌謠,Jack和Jill暗指路易16國王和他的皇后瑪麗,他們都是被斷頭的.
但是后來,歌謠傳來傳去,不再有原來的意思,更像是兒童詩歌.
詩歌是這樣的：
Jack and Jill went up the hill to fetch a pail of water
Jack fell down and broke his crown
And Jill came tumbling after.
Up got Jack,and home did trot
As fast as he could caper
He went to bed and bound his head
With vinegar and brown paper.
