Wench and Warrior
Round and round and round it goes,
The source but not the birth of clothes,
Wench and warrior, child and crone,
Without it dressed near barer bone.
A spinning wheel. It goes around in circles and makes the thread that is used in clothing and anyone who isn’t wearing clothes would be barer boned.
Words Ending in GRY
Think of words ending in -GRY. Angry and hungry are two of them. There are only three words in the English language. What is the third word? The word is something that everyone uses every day. If you have listened carefully, I have already told you what it is.
The riddle states, “There are only three words in the English language. What is the third word?” The third word of the phrase “the English language” is of course “language.” Don’t get angry at me, I didn’t make it up :)
I’m Easy To Give Yet Few Will Take
I’m easy to give yet few will take,
I’m shared with a bride and can be seen at a wake,
I have a monopoly on the young,
And at times, it’s true, I may have stung.
What am I?
Advice. It’s easy to give it out but advice is often ignored. Brides are frequently given advice on their wedding day and you’ll even hear life advice at a funeral. Advice is frequently given to young people and some advice can be hard to stomach (like you should lose a few pounds).

I’m lighter than air but a million men can’t lift me. What am I?
A bubble.
Bed, Evil, Identical
What word can be added before or after these words to make a new word or phrase?
Bed, Evil, Identical
Twin. Twin bed, Evil twin, Identical twin.
Ten Men’s Strength
Ten men’s strength,
Ten men’s length,
Ten men can’t break it,
Yet a young boy walks off with it.
What am I?
A rope.
Five Hundred Begins It
Five hundred begins it, five hundred ends it,
Five in the middle is seen;
First of all figures, the first of all letters,
Take up their stations between.
Join all together, and then you will bring
Before you the name of an eminent king.
DAVID (Roman numerals).
