Talk:Cross moline

Mother goose rhyme on Cross Moline?
Hi, looking up "cross moline" in Google I came up with this bit of information, which I was about to add to the page:


 * A reference to this symbol, of uncertain origin, occurs in the Mother Goose, as a children's jumprope ditty attested in the northern British Isles:The Moline Cross. Accessed April 19, 2009


 * Moline Cross, Moline Cross,
 * My gain is now loss
 * Oh, who will redeem me?
 * Moline Cross, Moline Cross.

However I could not find any reference to this rhyme through Google, other than the referenced Geocities page. So it cannot be added to the article yet. Does anyone have any independent source for this ditty? All the best, --Jorge Stolfi (talk) 03:38, 20 April 2009 (UTC)


 * No idea if it's a legit nursery rhyme, but if it is, then it will probably be listed in one of the Opie and Opie books... AnonMoos (talk) 04:14, 20 April 2009 (UTC)

Proposed merge from Cercelée
A Cercelée is described as basically an exaggerated Cross Moline, and there is not much more to say about it than that, so we might as well merge this as a section of this article. BD2412 T 02:38, 13 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Hearing no objection, merged as proposed. BD2412  T 18:54, 1 February 2023 (UTC)
