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).

What Does Man Love More Than Life?

What does man love more than life
Fear more than death or mortal strife
What the poor have, the rich require,
and what contented men desire,
What the miser spends and the spendthrift saves
And all men carry to their graves?

Nothing. This one is similar to Greater than God, but different enough to include it here.

Or stamp their feet
At the sound of me, women may laugh
Or sometimes weep

Light enough to caress the sky,
Hard enough to crack rocks.

Yet you hear me again,
Then I die,
‘Till you call me again.
