Little Bo Peep - English language nursery rhyme.
As with most products of oral tradition, there are many variations to the rhyme. The most common modern version is: Little Bo-Peep has lost her sheep, And can't tell where to find them; Leave them alone, And they'll come home, Wagging their tails behind them.

      The words of the Diddle Diddle Dumpling Nursery Rhyme

      A mother's words to a typical boy child in this poem Diddle Diddle Dumpling!
      No origins in history can be found for Diddle Diddle Dumpling - it is merely a nonsense rhyme probably made popular and handed down from generation to generation owing to the popularity of the name John (Diddle Diddle Dumpling my son John). It is an interesting fact that this is the only old rhyme that uses the name John - all of the older poems use the colloquialism for John i.e. Jack.

      John of Gaunt
      'John' from English history. A Plantagenet prince, the rich and powerful John of Gaunt (1340 - 1399 ). His liaison with a commoner called Katherine Swynford produced four illegitimate children who were given the name Beaufort
      ( He married Katherine in 1396 and their children, by this time adults, were legitimised).Their son John was the Great-Great Grandfather of King Henry VIII of England
