Your rhyme reminds me of words from the 1905 classic novel,
The Scarlet Pimpernel, by Baroness Emma Orczy.
"They seek him here,
they seek him there,
those Frenchies seek him everywhere.
Is he in heaven or is he in hell?
That damned elusive Pimpernel."
It's handy to know this when playing Trivial Pursuit.
The story line of The Scarlet Pimpernel actually became the
template for a succession of Hollywood and comic-book heroes
such as Zorro and Batman.
Cheers,
