123. A HUMAN PRODIGY
My father is my son,
And I’m my mother’s mother;
My daughter and sister are one,
I’m grandam to my brother!
How was this?
124. A CHARADE
Catch my first with nimble wit,
Add a simple word;
Then my whole may help a bit
Opportunely heard.
125. A PARADOX
My mate and I from home did start,
Some little space we were apart.
When we had run a mile or more
We kept our distance, as before;
Shade of Colenso! could this be,
When twice as fast as I ran he?
