- (continued from previous page)Ink, ank, under the tank, ten drawing four
A woman milking a cowIt opens like a barn-door it closes like a trap a many a thing you think of before you think of that
An umbrellaOn the gravel I travel, on the ocean I stand, I rode the mare that never foaled and carried the bridle in my hand
A shipIt's body is long and thin
Its head is quite round
It runs round the house
With its head towards the ground
A nail in a bootI know a house and a mouse wouldn't fit in it and all the people in the world would not count all the windows in it
A thimbleIts body is long and thin
And its head is quite round,
It runs round the house,
With its head towards the ground.- Collector
