    (continued from previous page)
    As I went into a garden of wheat.
    I picked up a thing any one could eat.
    It was not fish, flesh or bone.
    And it three weeks time it walked alone.?
    An egg.
    What nation does a criminal dread.
    Condemnation.
    Why is a pup's tail like the heart of a tree?
    It is farthest from the bark.
