    Grace in the hall
    Down comes God and saves us all.
    Browne I am and I'm much admired
    Many are the horrors I have tried
    Worry a man and tiren[?] a horse
    Tellme this riddle if you can.
    Four stick a standers
    Four yellow yanders
    Two crooks
    Two stooks
    And one wheel about.
    One two three
    Johnny caught a flea
    Put him on the teapot
    And make some tea
    The flea jumped out
    And Johnny let a shout
    Here comes Johnny with his shirt
    hanging out.
    Good morning Tom, hens are gone,
    Your cock will crow no more
    You sleepy head, you went to bed
    And forgot to lock the door.
