@Tokiohotelgirl97 the garden made mocking reference to her womb and the fact that she gave birth to no heirs

@Tokiohotelgirl97 ....or it could be a sweet song about a little girl and her flower garden..... that could also be the meaning of the song....

disturbing
1.silver bells =cathedral bells, cockle shells =pilgrimage to Shrine of St James & pretty maids =Catholic nuns. 2.cockle shells = lewd comment on her marriage. …garden grow? = scornful attack of inability to produce an heir. pretty maids all in a row = her miscarriages. 3. “Bloody Mary” with silver bells & cockle shells = instruments of torture: silver bells = thumbscrews & cockles shells = instruments of torture attached to the genitals. pretty maids = early guillotine-type devices
