3 questions on what you just read. Get one wrong and the story will show you where it says otherwise.

Anonymous Spanish corro (ring-game) song, in print by 1895 in Braulio Vigón's Asturian field collection (Juegos y rimas infantiles, page 72) and documented across Spain and Latin America through the 19th century. We teach the familiar Latin American form plus the shoes-and-stockings verse (a traditional accretion sung wherever the song is sung) and close on the choosing verse exactly as the 1895 page prints it. Source text. Translation ours.
