- Riddle me Riddle me what is that.
Over the head and under the hat? Hair of the head.
A flock of white sheep on a red hill.
Here they go there they go and now they stand still? Teeth of the gums.
As black as ink as white as snow and it hops on the road like hailstones? A magpie.
Ink and under a bank,ten drawing four? A woman milking a cow.
The King of Manchester brought home to his sister a bottomless vessel for holding raw meat? A ring.
Why does a cow look over a ditch?
Because she couldn’t look under it.
Why does a hen pick a pat. Because she can’t lick it.
Hoddy doddy with a black round body and a big fat hat what is that? A pot.- Collector
