- As I went out the puddley gap I met my uncel Teddy I cut of his head and left his body easy
A head of cabbage.
In side and out side and yet the house can not do without it.
A window.
What is it that goes around the floor and stops at the door.
The brush.
It is as round as a marble and as flat as a pan and it will never alarm until you pull its tail.
A bell.
The man that made it never wore it and the man that wore it never saw it.
A coffin.
It is as round as an apple and as plump as a ball can climb the Church over steple and all.
The sun.
Headed like a thimble tailed like a rat you may guess for ever but you would not guess that.
A pipe.
