- A leaper of a ditch, a clipper of a thorn, a wee red cow with a pair of leather horns? A hare.Black I am and much admired, men and horses I have tired; they broke my bones and smashed my face and took me from my native place? Coal.King of mizocks built a ship an’ in that ship his daughter sits an’ I am ashamed to tell her name, an there is three times I said it.? Ann.As round as an apple, as flat as a pen, on one side a woman, and on the other a man? A penny.She went to the wood and she got it and when she got it she sat down to look for it and when she could not get it she took it home with her? A thorn in a woman’s foot.
