  1. 39 Why are tall people lazier than short ones? (Because they are longer in bed.)
    (40) Up a green valley and down a green path; ladies and gentle tread upon that; some with green gowns and some with green caps - and you're a good scholar if you'll riddle me that. (Ducks and drakes.)
    (41) White birds featherless flew from paradise; Lord, Lord Lander took it up handless, and ate it up mouthless.
    (Snow-flakes.)
    (42) What is it that has four legs and one foot? (A bed)
    Long and narrow, thin an tall, many a man caused to fall. (A gun)
