  2. Folklore
    15-7-'38
    What goes round the wood and round the wood and never gets into the wood
    The trunk of a tree.
    As round as an apple as plump as a cup and all in Ireland could'nt put it up. The sun shining in a well.
    What always walks with its head down.
    A nail in your boot.
