[PW] Re: ? The House That Jack Built -in German?

[Ulrich, Paul]

Hello Tod,

I located a German translation in the following book:
Humpty Dumpty. Die 77 schönsten englischen Kinderreime, Nonsensverse und 
Rätselsprüche aus der berühmten Sammlung der Mother Goose. Translator: 
Klaus Hoffer. Zürich: Diogenes Verlag 1985.

I'll send the full text to your personal email address.

Regards,
Paul
