A buxom young lady named Widdicombe
Had sex with a farmer from Biddicombe
She plied him with rum and tickled his bum
Till he came, and by golly Diddicome.
We were taught this rhyme in Sunday school in Devon many years ago.
Was there such a person? Did this event really happen? And if so, was she related to the Ms Widdicombe that we know and love?
