As Jean said, don't forget you will need the person (not necessarily male!) 
who is the "I" in the rhyme.

Also, please remember this was originally a riddle, not a nursery rhyme, the 
question being, 
"Kits, cats, sacks, and wives,  
How many were there going to St Ives?"

The two solutions (depending on how the question is read) being either ONE, 
ie the person telling the rhyme, or NONE ie the questioner means "How many of 
kits, cats etc are going to St Ives".  The trick obviously is that the 
recipient will do the lengthy mental arithmetic of 7 times table and additions.

Soooo, if you put a signpost in, make sure it faces the right way.
