- (continued from previous page)There is a ten acre field covered with snow. In one end of it stands a black cow with white spots and in the other end a white cow with black spots. What time of year is it? Winter.King of Morocco he sat on a stool
He pulled out a long thing,
And called it a fool.
It was not a fool, not a foolish thing,
But many a black hole it stood in.
Pen.A two thousand ton ship with a three thousand ton cargo sailed into Belfast Hbr,
two thousand tons were unloaded. What did the ship weigh leaving the harbour?
An anchor.I have a grey goose,
She is of a large size,
Those that would go with her
Would want to be wise
She has feet on her body
And walks upon none,
Seeks far for a living,
And seldom comes home.
A ship.- Collector
