Humpty Dumpty


Humpty Dumpty is a character in an English nursery rhyme, probably originally a riddle and one of the best known in the English-speaking world. Though not explicitly described so, he is typically portrayed as an anthropomorphic egg. The first recorded versions of the rhyme date from late eighteenth century England and the tune from 1870 in James William Elliott's ''National Nursery Rhymes and Nursery Songs''. Its origins are obscure and several theories have been advanced to suggest original meanings.
The character of Humpty Dumpty was popularised in the United States by actor George L. Fox (1825–77). As a character and literary allusion he has appeared or been referred to in a large number of works of literature and popular culture, particularly Lewis Carroll's ''Through the Looking-Glass'' (1872). The rhyme is listed in the Roud Folk Song Index as No. 13026.
==Lyrics and melody==
The rhyme is one of the best known and most popular in the English language. The most common modern text is:
It is a single quatrain, with external rhymes〔J.Smith, ''Poetry Writing'' (Teacher Created Resources, 2002), ISBN 0-7439-3273-0, p. 95.〕 that follow the pattern of AABB and with a trochaic metre, which is common in nursery rhymes.〔P. Hunt, ed., ''International Companion Encyclopedia of Children's Literature'' (London: Routledge, 2004), ISBN 0-203-16812-7, p. 174.〕 The melody commonly associated with the rhyme was first recorded by the composer and nursery rhyme collector James William Elliott in his ''National Nursery Rhymes and Nursery Songs'' (London, 1870).〔J. J. Fuld, ''The Book of World-Famous Music: Classical, Popular, and Folk'' (Courier Dover Publications, 5th edn., 2000), ISBN 0-486-41475-2, p. 502.〕 The Roud Folk Song Index, which catalogues folk songs and their variations by number, classifies the song as 13026.〔("Searchable Intel database" ), ''English Folk Song and Dance Society'', retrieved 18 June 2012.〕
