Agatha christie has made ample use of nursery rhymes in her works, which one is linked to 'sing a song of six pence'(the clocks, cards on the table, hickory dickory dock, a pocketful of rye ) ?

Well as the next line to Sing a song of sixpence is 'a pocketful of rye' could that be a clue? Aug 25 02, 8:52 AM

Sing a song of sixpence, A POCKETFUL OF RYE, Four and twenty blackbirds Baked in a pie. When the pie was opened, The birds began to sing. Oh, wasn't that a dainty dish To set before a king? The king was in his counting-house Counting out his {money;} The queenn was in the parlour Eating bread and honey. The maid was in the garden Hanging out the clothers, When down came a blackbird And pecked off her nose. Aug 25 02, 8:53 AM
