<P> Ring - a-ring - a-roses, A pocket full of posies; Hush! hush! hush! hush! We're all tumbled down . </P> <P> In 1882, Godey's Lady's Book has the following version: </P> <P> Ring around a rosy Pocket full of posies . One, two, three--squat! </P> <P> Before the last line, the children stop suddenly, then exclaim it together, "suiting the action to the word with unfailing hilarity and complete satisfaction". </P>
