- As round as an apple; as plump as a ball;
Can climb the church over steeple and all.
The sun
One half dead, another half alive and a tail wagging?
A dog with his head in a pot.
What goes up a ladder with his head down?
A nail in a man's boot.
Not an artist, people say
Yet it draws things ever day.
A horse.
Londonderry, Cork and Kerry. Spell me that without a K? T h a t
Why is a coward like a leaking vessel?
Because they both run.- Collector

Men and horses have I tired.
Break my back and bruise my face,
And take me out of my burial place.
