interventions: OLD WOMAN (AND THE SHOE)
This nursery rhyme, which dates back to the eighteenth-century England, allegedly refers to the English Parliament-which is the old woman. The shoe is England itself.
There was an old woman who lived in a shoe.
She had so many children, she didn't know what to do;
She gave them some broth without any bread;
Then whipped them all soundly and put them to bed.
