    The Sun.
    What is the lighest town in Ireland
    Cork
    What town goes into a bottle
    Cork.
    Under the water and over the water and never touches the water

    It is in the marrow, but not in the bone
    It is in the rock but not in the stone
    It is in the grave but not in the dead
    It is in the Church but not in the steeple
    It is in the Minister but not in his people
    The Letter R.
