Well during the black death many people were killed. This made all populated places with the black death reek of dead bodies and corpses. This is where the song "ring around the rosie" originated. "Ring around the rosie" meant all the dead bodies around, so the place smelled a lot so they stuffed the corpses pockets with flowers or posie. That is where the line "pockets full of posie" originated. Near the end of the black death they burned the bodies seized by the plague to eradicate the disease, of course this formed into a problem when the, powerful at the time, catholic church wanted to preform a proper burial. Then the last line, "ashes, ashes, they all fall down" represents when they burn the bodies of the victims.
