As a child, I always thought that Jack was made to sit in the corner, facing the wall, as a punishment for some reason and that he was hoping to redeem himself by finding the plum. Odd.
I can’t put it together right now, but I think there is something to what you remember – another verse? Somebody sat in a corner! I can’t think who it was right now – a different Jack – this Jack?

I see a belly ache coming!
It is a giant pie!

I would like a piece of pie, please. I will sit in the corner if it helps to get me pie.
If I could I would send you Little Jack Horner’s pie – it looks good!

I would love to cut a pie with a sword. 🙂
You might slice yourself!
Elephant
LOL Perhaps I would, but I would laugh anyway. 😉
