- (continued from previous page)16. As I went up a hill I saw a house and in that house there was a cupboard and in that cupboard there was a cup and in that cup there was a sup that everyone must take?
Death.17. Under the fire, and over the fire and never touching the fire.
A cake in the oven pot.18. What is it that goes around on its head all day and stands in the corner all night?
A brush.19. Why is the bark of an elm tree like the top of a dog's tail?
Because it is the farthest away from the heart.20. A garden was made and in it was placed a maiden as fair as the first April morning, and she was made wife the first day of her life and she died before she was born? Eve.21. Who is the poor old sinner that sits on the stool of repentance drawing the threads of misery and prepares the sole for the last? A shoemaker.- Collector
