- (56) As I went up a slippery gap I met a man with a little red cap. He had a stone in his middle and a stick on his back and I'll give you a pound if you'll riddle me that? (A cherry)
(57) As I went up a slippery gap I met my Uncle Davy I cut off his head and drank his blood and left his body airy? (A bottle of wine) - (58) I see it, and you do not see it, and it is nearer to you than to me?
(The back of your head).
