G. Jingles and rhymes
⑴ Mix a pancake, ⑵ When the wind is in the East,
Stir a pancake, It’s good for neither man nor beast;
Pop it in the pan. When the wind is in the North,
Fry the pancake, The skillful fisher goes not forth;
Toss the pancake, When the wind is in the South,
Catch it if you can. It blows the bait in the fish’s mouth;
When the wind is in the West,
　　 Then it is at its very best.
