"Does that mean if you had two
cows you'd give me one?" asked the
farmer.
"It surely does," said the banker.
"If you had two horses, would you
give me one?"
"Certainly, my friend"

you give me one?"

more sheep. Here is question for

S24 on each car he sells how long will
it take him to pay the railroad bill p.

And they that rule in England,
In stately conclave met;
