- (continued from previous page)There was a man lived in this town
Grig Grissells Was his name.
Saddle skirts was gilt with gold
And there's three times I've told his name?
Was.It is in the Church but not in the steeple
It is in the Priest but not in the people.
It is in the heifer but not in the cow.
It is in the grubber but not in the plough.
The letter R.There was a man of Adam's race
Who had a certain dwelling place.
Neither in heaven, earth or hell or any place a man could dwell.
Neither on the sea nor on the plain
Now who was he & guess his name.
(Jonah in the whale's stomach).Adam in his age is rocking in his cage
His children died of age, but he's still alive & lusty.
(A hawthorn bush).As I went thro yon guttery gap
I met a wee man with a red cap
He said he was more afraid of the cock & the hen
Than King George & all his men.
