- As round as an apple as plump as a ball can climb over church over steeple and all?
The sun.What goes round the wood and round the wood and never gets into it?
The bark of a tree.

- What has two eyes and cannot see?
A scissors.Long legs, short thighs, little head, and not eyes.
A tongs.What is a one eyed servant? A needle.As I went in on yonder gap I met my uncle Aundy with iron nose and timber toes and God knows he would frighten the crows.
A gun.
