Mysteries In Rhyme ~~Were Jack and Jill Really Fetching Water?

Jack and Jill went up the hill to fetch a pail of water
Jack fell down and broke his crown
And Jill came tumbling after.
Up got Jack, and home did trot
As fast as he could caper
He went to bed and bound his head
With vinegar and brown paper.

We all learned this rhyme as children but to preserve our innocence the true meaning was withheld form us.

I started to question Jacks motives toward Jill as soon as I had a grasp of the Principal Of Gravity. Sir Issac Newton's research actually solved this mystery but the age he lived in was one of restraint toward spelling out the reprehensible behavior Jack had in mind on that fateful day.

The key question is; 'Why did jack and Jill go up that hill to fetch water? A review of the Principal Of Gravity tells us the water flows down hill and that they could have filled their pail at the bottom of the hill.

So what motivates this young couple to climb that hill? And what actions precipitate their ungainly return down that hill?

This of course is only conjecture on my part as the only witness to this day was Jack and Jill themselves.

After a thorough review of all available materials pertaining to this event I have concluded that the real reason for the climb up that secluded hill was one being 'carnal' in nature. My research shows that Jack and Jill were not the innocent children portrayed in later versions of the nursery rhyme. In reality they were in their late teens and were in 'heat' like most young people of that age.

So for me the reason for the walk up that hill is clear. They were looking for a place to explore each other sexually.

But why that fall down the hill?

Jack being a young man with wild desires and a need to explore his every sexual thought must have asked Jill to perform a sexual act she did not feel comfortable performing. In her anger at Jacks insistence that they try everything Jill struck Jack and he fell backwards, on to his head, and fell to the bottom of the hill.

Jill's momentum, from striking Jack, must have caused her to lose her balance and fall down the hill crashing into Jack at the bottom. Jack, being injured and dazed from the fall, got up and ran home where his mother attended his injuries and he was confined to bed to heal.

Jill, while sustaining no physical injuries, was scared for life by Jacks callous actions and never saw Jack again, Research shows that Jill married a person named Bob late in her life never had any children and in fact never consummated her marriage.

This is such a sad story and really should be told in its original form. I see a screen play in the making here.

Love ya,
