What i have just recently learned in the middle ages was a song that i really didn’t know what it actually meant at first, until i heard it from our social studiesclass. The song/riddle is called as ring around the rosie. The first line of the song, ring around the rosie meant a ring of a hurtful rash on someone’s body. The part of the song, pocket full of posies meant that all these people are dying because of this rash spreading around, and nobody knew why it was happening, back then they thought it was because god was angry, but today we know that they was the black rat who carried on this horrible disease. And the last part of this riddle is, Ashes! Ashes! We all fall down. This meant that nobody really cared anymore about their lives, so they all fought and killed themselves because they knew they were going sooner or later.
