- The King of Manchester brought home to his sister a bottomless vessel for holding raw meat? A ring.
I met my uncle Teddy going out a slippery gap I cut his head and left his body easy? A head of cabbage.
Betty outside the ditch
And Betty inside the ditch
And if you touch Betty she will bite you?
A nettle.
As black as ink as white as snow and it hops on the road like hailstones? A magpie.
Two ducks ahead of a duck.
Two ducks behind a duck.
And a duck in the middle? Three ducks.
Hoddy-doddy
With a round black body
And a big flat hat
What’s that? A pot.
A flock of white sheep
On a red hill.
Here they go
There they go
Now they stand still! Teeth in your gums.- Collector
