03:43they represent three protestant loyalists who were accused of plotting against queen mary
03:49mary showed no mercy towards them she didn't cut off their tails she burnt them at the stake okay
03:55how many of these how many of these songs come from the time of queen mary a lot of the
04:00mary mary
04:01quite contrary is another one i know ring around the rosie too well that one is like the plague
04:06well that's number one considered the worst that's number one ring around the rosie a pocket full of
04:14posies because you'd fall you'd put their ashes ashes ashes and then you die so what were you
