Is it "see-saw, Marjory Daw, Johnny shall have a new master"?
Hope that helps! |

Hi, Veronika, I see that your version is Scottish. Maybe Alex can shed some light on the subject. If I had to guess, I would say it might be a nonsense word. Bruce |

The nursery rhyme is the following. (But I don �t think it helps in the meaning.)
See Saw Sacradown,
Which is the way to London town?
One boot up, and the
other down,
And this is the way
to London town.
Can Sacradown be a name? Or a playground object or movement?
