I've changed it since your comments Minnie...now I hope there won't be any trouble solving it. I didn't have a problem.
Let me know what you think.
Thanks.

I liked the old way you had it but this is good too.

I'm glad you changed it. It's an awesome likeness. I usually don't do puzzles this big but found a small Humpty with a reference to this one so thought I'd try it. It took me awhile but I didn't guess and finally got it. Harris Harris has the right last line, although I think some books leave out the work "back." I knew it referenced a political event in England but hadn't heard the other quoted verses, so thanks for sharing. Did you know many Nursery Rhymes are basked on political events? How did they become rhymes for kids?

Thanks Jan and Edith.
I did know that Nursery Rhymes were political in nature. I've heard that many of the words and nursery rhymes lyrics were used to mimic the political (and royal) events of the day. Because direct dissent would be punishable by death they set them to verse and taught them to children.
