“As round as an apple...”
As round as an apple as deep as a cup all the kings horses could not pull it up. (A well)Patch up patch without any stitches
Riddle me that and Ill buy you a breeches ( a head of cabbage)Flies high flies low tips the grass & never mows. ( A swallow)It is red & blue & olive & green
The King cant get & neither can the queen
(The rainbow)
A bridge over a lake without a stick or stone (Bridge of Ice)As round as an apple as plump as a ball can climb the church over steeple & all (The sun)
Long & narrow thin & tall causes many a man to fall (A gun)
