"Jack and Jill and Old Dame Gill" is a lesser-known variation or extension of the classic nursery rhyme "Jack and Jill". This expanded version of the rhyme introduces Old Dame Gill, who is the caretaker of the children. This rhyme not only includes the episode of Jack and Jill tumbling down a hill, but also features additional verses of other comedic troubles the two children fall into. This extension blends simple storytelling with rhythmic, memorable verse that reflects misadventure, fun, and fancy.
