   I sat down on my seat and looked through my winkers and saw the dead burying the living?
   The dead ashes burying the living coals.
   Men often see it, things scarcely see it but God never sees it?
   Some one better than himself.
   Where was Moses when the light went out?
   In the dark.
   What goes round the house and round the house and sleeps in the corner at night?
   The brush.
   What goes round the house with a harrow after it?
   A hen with a flock of chickens after her.
   What sleeps with its finger in its eye all night?
   The crook.
   Patch upon patch without any stitches riddle me that and I'll buy you a pair of breeches?
   A cabbage.
   head like a thimble, tail like a rat you may guess forever but you'll never guess that?
   A pipe.
   What turns without going round?
   Milk.
   What goes away between two woods and comes back between two waters?
   A man carrying pails of water.
