- (continued from previous page)Two dogs went up on a ditch,
What was one of the dog's name? "What"
- Three white ladies in white,
The three of them die the same night?
Three candles.Riddle me, riddle me
What is that over your head and under your hat? The hair of your head.
What is full and holds more? A pot of potatoes when you pour in water.
What is the greatest riddle in the world?
Life, because we must all give it up.
Headed like a thimble, tailed like a rat,
You may guess for ever,
But you could not guess that? - Collector
