What is the highest part of the cow?
The low.
I went up the road and down the road and carried the road on my back?
A ladder.
Little thing little thing smaller than a mouse it has more windows than a kings house?
A thimble.
Why does the girls look at the moon?
Because there is a man in it.
As white as milk as black as ink and it hops on the road like hailstones? A Magpie.
