- As round as an apple, as plump as a ball, can climb the church, over steeple and all?
The Sun.What goes round the house, and round the house, and sleeps in a corner?
A brush.What's full and holds more?
A pot full of potatoes, when water is poured into it.Headed like a thimble,
Tailed like a rat,
You may guess for ever,
But you couldn't guess that!
A pipe.Middy-noddy, sound body,
Three feet and a wooden hat.
A pot.What is it walks with its head down?
A nail in your boot.As black as ink, as white as milk, went hopping along the road like hailstones.
A magpie.What has eyes and cannot see?
A potato.What bears and never blossoms?
A crook.Long legs, and crooked thighs, a small head and no eyes.
