    Share Share Post
    A woman named Jane Mahony used to wash her feet every Saturday Night very late, and this she was washing them in a dish. The cock crew and she kept washing away, and he crew the second time, and the third time, he flew into her lap. She took her legs out of the dish and ran into bed with them wet, and she never again washed her legs late in the night time.
