Question: should this article place so much emphasis on the Tolkien version or should that have a separate article? Lee M 00:25, 31 Jan 2004 (UTC)
So does anyone know just what scandal it is supposed to be satirizing? 82.192.146.25 23:49, 16 December 2005 (UTC)
I have modified the layout of the three pictures so that the edit links don't stick together near the bottom of the page. -- Iiaiialover 10:02, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
Please do explain that; what is funny about lightning, in this context??
This should reference the diddle article. Further, that article needs much more; there are other definitions. Then, there's doodle.
Thank You,

Here's my take on this limerick: The moon represents the fundamental flaw. Here mankind designed the wheel using the full moon as a reference, but the moon is not a dish, it is a sphere.
I can also imply the cat has a master who plays or IS the fiddle
The BOVINE jumped over this whole concept
As for the DOG well the dogs of society which exist to this day (the exceedingly rich)
I also think the Pied Piper is related to this limerick
just a thought not stating fact at all —Preceding

I'm deemphasizing the astronomy angle as a possible source (the animals refer to constellations which are only visible at the correct time to plant in England).
While it may be true that the various suggested constellations do appear in the English skies around 10PM in mid-April (or 11PM in March, or 9PM in June...), it is extremely far fetched to think that anyone would use this pattern of constellations to mark anything.
So, unless a credible source to the contrary can be found, I'm demoting this stuff to quirky coincidence. -- 76.202.118.151 ( talk) 07:50, 21 December 2008 (UTC)
Long live Didur, Didell!

I plan to record a spoken version of the article. I may edit the "Meaning" section because it is a little difficult to follow. Still, all the different theories are amusing, so I plan to leave them all in. Any feedback is welcomed. 0101Abc ( talk) 05:38, 19 August 2022 (UTC)
