  Yes, one should get out of one’s shell but he went to far with this attempt. Or was he pushed by that thieving murderer Jack of the Beanstalk ?

You’re so right, Carl. What was the horses’ responsibility in caring for Humpty! I’m all for personal responsibility. HD had to have known it was dangerous!

The goo? Oh dear, did they kill the horses just to make glue out of them to put Dumpy together? I say, leave him all cracked up.

Actually, Carl, there is one that exists that is comparable to the tragedy of Humpty Dumpty. For, how can we forget the calamity that fell upon Jack when he went up that infamous hill with Jill? His poor crown was never the same again. Never mind, that Jill took a tumble, too.

They went clippity-clop, through all of that slop
and whence failing to stop, someone called for a mop.
But, alas came the sun, and put an end to that fun,
and now Humpty’s well done, with no yolk left to run.

  Finally, someone posits a legitimate theory to resolve this matter. Appreciate your brilliant insight.

Another good reason why one should never ever sit on a wall.

Every time I come across mention of Humpty I feel I must make a stand against the “Heresy Of The Egg”. Everyone follows the long held falsehood of Humpty Dumpty’s Eggness. Nowhere in the rhyme does it say that Humpty was of an egg-like nature. He was just a unknown creature/object that fell off a wall & broke. His true bodily form thus remains a timeless mystery…

  You may be on to something. HISTORY OF THE DECLINE AND FALL OF THE ROMAN EMPIRE
  
  Edward Gibbon, Esq.
  
  Gibbon’s work is now seen as a guise and parody of Britain’s decline in his era. Voltaire also critiqued government folly in his satires. Perhaps the Humpty Dumpty legend represents a similar commentary.
