The Dead Bring Forth the Living
I saw the dead bring forth the living. I saw the living bring forth the dead. Who or what did I see?
A funeral. Someone’s death caused the living to come to the funeral, and during the funeral the living carry the casket of the deceased.
Garlic or Spice
Before any changes I’m a garlic or spice. My first is altered and I’m a hand-warming device. My second is changed and I’m trees in full bloom. The next letter change makes a deathly old tomb. Change the fourth to make a fruit of the vine. Change the last for a chart plotted with lines. What was I? What did I become? What did I turn out to be?

Apples for leather,
leather for silk,
silk for tobacco,
all to get milk.
