<<PREVIOUS--NEXT>>

  • Riddle 1: I am taken from a mine, and shut up in a wooden case, from which I am never released, and yet I am used by almost everybody. What am I?

    Pencil lead.
  • Riddle 2: What goes round the house and in the house but never touches the house?

    The Sun.
  • Riddle 3: What is it that you can keep after giving it to someone else?

    Your word
  • Riddle 4: There are four brothers in this world that were all born together. The first runs and never wearies. The second eats and is never full. The third drinks and is always thirsty. The fourth sings a song that is never good.

    Water, fire, earth, wind.
  • Riddle 5: I am the beginning of sorrow, and the end of sickness. You cannot express happiness without me, yet I am in the midst of crosses. I am always in risk, yet never in danger. You may find me in the sun, but I am never out of darkness.

    The letter S.
