- (continued from previous page)26. The Queen of England had a ship,
And there her daughter lies,
And if her name could be found out,
She would be hanged,
And there 'tis told four times.
AND.27. Between two hills there is a house,
And in the house there is a dresser,
And in the dresser there is a cup,
And in the cup there is a sup, for everyone to take it.
DEATH28. As I went up a hill of wonder,
And I came down a hill of thunder
I saw twenty four blackbirds tearing up a field asunder
A HARROW29. Hoddy, doddy, with a round black body,
and a big flat head. What's that?
A POT30. A flock of white sheep on a red hill
here they go, there they go, and now they stand still.
Teeth in your gum.31. Riddle me, riddle me what is that over the head and under the hat.
"The hair of the head"32. As round as a marble.
As deep as a cup
And all the men in Kerry
Couldn't pick it up.
