Saintsbury discusses the historical context and artistic value of these verses, exploring their evolution from original narratives to their more nonsensical forms today. Throughout the introduction, he emphasizes the enduring appeal of sound and rhythm in children's poetry, setting the stage for the many delightful rhymes that follow, which celebrate imagination and play.
