- I am just going to tell you a few riddles
Headed like a timble tailed like a rat you would not guess this nor you would not guess that. A pipe.
Patches on patches without any stitches riddle me that and I will give you a pair of britches.
A head of cabbage.
Under the water and over the water and never touches the water. A man going across a bridge with a pale of water on his head.
What is full and holds more? A pot full of potatoes and put water in it.
What are the three things on this world that can not be got A shoe for the foot of the mountain. A towel to wipe the face of the world and a sheet for the bed of the ocean. When did mosses sleep five in a bed, when he slept with his forefathers.- Collector
