Mary Jones
The Vicar, conducting a Sunday afternoon service, was trying to interest the children in the Burial Service.
He was dealing with the part which speaks of the changing of the earthly body: but found several of his audience busily engaged in conversation.
Determined to secure better attention if possible, he asked the following question, “And now, Mary Jones, who made your vile body?” To which came the ready answer, “Please, sir, mother did, and I made the skirt.”
