GUESS-ME-QUICKS
Riddle me, riddle me, riddle me ree, Perhaps you can tell me what this may be.
In marble walls as white as milk, Lined with a skin as soft as silk; Within a fountain crystal clear, A golden apple doth appear.
No doors there are to this stronghold, Yet thieves break in and steal the gold.
Thirty white horses upon a red hill, Now they tramp, now they champ, now they stand still.
Black within and red without; Four corners round about.
Little Nan Etticoat, In a white petticoat, And a red nose; The longer she stands, The shorter she grows.
As round as an apple, as deep as a cup, And all the King's horses can't pull it up.
Long legs, crooked thighs, Little head, and no eyes.
Higher than a house, higher than a tree, Oh, whatever can that be?
