You’ll Have At Night
You’ll have this six-letter word at night and if you remove the first letter it denotes the top, such as on a train. What is the word?
Supper (upper).
A Red Robe and Staff In Hand
I wear a red robe,
With staff in hand,
And a stone in my throat.
Cut me and I weep red tears
What am I?
A cherry
There are a few other variations of this one:
As I went through the garden gap,
Who should I meet but Dick Red-cap!
A stick in his hand, a stone in his throat,
If you’ll tell me this riddle, I’ll give you a groat.
(Said to be the lyrics to A Cherry)
I slipped down a slippery gap,
Found a man with a red cap,
He had a stick in his back and a stone in his belly,
Riddle me this and I’ll give you a penny.
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 :)
Rooms One Score and Six
This house holds rooms, one score and six,
That shelter a vast mob.
It lets lions lie down with the lambs,
Yet makes both shun the slob.
None now will nestle with nicks and nates,
While reams room near the rear.
Though you and I have separate rooms
Both our bottles brim with beer.
The king and queen can never mate
(Though hands and hearts hobnob)
Because their rooms are separate
If this jail does its job.
What house is this that rules thus
Forcing faith to fend with fear?
The answer to this riddle lies
With dead and dying here.
A dictionary.
Don’t Speak But No Word I Cannot Make
I don’t speak but there is no word I cannot make. What am I?
The alphabet.
Dwarves and Snow White
The dwarves and Snow White sit down for a bite.
