Cockleshells dont grow and dont need water. But in a maths question they do grow, therefore someone else needs to answer the question 1. Fill the 7 liter jug 2. Pour 7 litres into 10 liter jug 3. Repeat steps 1 and 2. This leaves 4 liters in the 7 liter jug 4. Pour the 4 liters on the cockleshells 5. Repeat steps 1 through 4
Mary, Mary, quite contrary,How does your garden grow?With silver bells, and cockleshells,And pretty maids all in a row. 1st line- Referring To Bloody Mary 2nd line- The garden is a cemetery 3rd line- Silver bells and cockleshells are instruments of torture 4th line- The 'pretty maids all in a row' are guillotines that are lined up in rows
One explanation is that the Mary is Queen Mary I (Bloody Mary) and that the silver bells and cockleshells and little maids are instruments of torture. Another religion based explanation is that the garden refers to Mary's womb and the silver bells to Catholic church and the pretty maids to nuns.
