    Out between two woods and in between two waters?
    A person fetching two pales of water.
    Blackie and whitie went up the hill Blackie came down and whitie lay still?
    A hen with an egg.
    As round as an apple as plump as a ball over the market-house steeple and all?
    The sun.
    First white then red all standing in a bed and the finest lady in the land could put it in the hole before her
    A carrit.
