Historical Background:
Dr. E. F. Rimbault, editor of "Nursery Rhymes" published in 1846, claims that "The Old Woman in a Basket" alludes to James II, the last Catholic monarch to rule over England, Scotland, and Ireland. His claim was possibly influenced by the fact that the rhyme's associated tune is "Lilliburlero," which "danced James II out of three kingdoms." The song "Lilliburlero" mocks Irish Catholic Jacobite values. Another theory, published in "Mother Goose's Melody," (1765) states that the rhyme was written about Henry V by parties opposed to his war in France.
