a variation of pat-a-cake, a children's game played by a child clapping hands alone and with another child while chanting a nursery rhyme which has the following beginning words: / "Pat-a-cake, pat-acake, baker's man! / Bake me a cake as fast as you can, / Shape it and prick it, and mark it with B, / And put it in the oven for Baby and me!" / Used figuratively to mean "childish clarity or simplicity" in this lecture. —SHSBC Binder 22 Approved Glossary
