  1. A Charm

    Share Share Post
    One day a man got a charm to cure his toothache. He opened the charm when the toothache was gone. This was what was written on the piece of paper "good- ye toothache until we meet in hell. When he opened the charm the toothache came again.

  2. At the Foot of Rooska Hill

    Share Share Post
    One day for recreation quite easy in my mind.
    The fields around were brightly crowned with flowers of every kind,
    About midday I chanced to stray down by the rippling rill.
    And as I passed I met a lass at the foot of Rooska hill.
