To my disgrace I've never heard of it! The reason for the name is the tale of the Pied Piper of Hamelin (Hamelin, a town on the Weser river in Germany). The Pied Piper was not paid for relieving the city of rats & so he played his pipes & all the children followed him out of the city. How hot is that?
According to the legend, the Pied Piper drowned the rats in the River Weser in Hamelin.
The rhyme scheme of "The Pied Piper of Hamelin" by Robert Browning is mainly AABBCC for the stanzas.
