nursery rhyme connections

[Henry V111]

hi, im trying to solve the msn conspiracy and am stuck on a clue about nursery rhymes. the clue is-

Now incy wincy spider went up the spout again

To the land where the bong trees grow

Hickory dickory dock.

i know what rhymes they are, but there is a connection with them, any suggestions would help alot.the first letters from each line are highlighted- nth, but not sure if that has anything to do with the connection yet.............., thanks for helping

The answer that worked for me was 'circle' - trouble is, I don't know why! I chose that partly because a ring is mentioned in one of the poems and from the clue that 'it goes on forever'. If anyone can enlighten me I'd be grateful!

Hi,

Guess its because:

spider forms web in circles (round)

mouse runs up clock (face is round)

perhaps (I dont know) bong tree is circular?!?

a bong (piton) incidentally is used by mountaineers for securing a rope through an "eye" at one end.

Don't know that nursery rhyme - perhaps I should get out more often!! :o)
