Note 22 — RIDDLES.
Reading edition
Cf. Irish Folk-Lore Riddles, 67:
Riddle me, riddle me, Randy Row,
My father gave me some seed to sow;
The seeds were black, the ground was white,
Riddle me that against Saturday night.
Porto Rican (Mason and Espinosa):
151. Sábana blanca está tendida, semilla negra se va por encima, tres que la riegan y dos que la miran.
Catalán (and see note):
XXV. Lo camp es blanch,
la llavó es negra,
cinch son los bous
que menan la rella.
