托爾金的謎猜

推薦 0 收藏 0 轉貼0 訂閱站台

沒讀過《哈比人傳奇》就去看《魔戒》是一件可惜的事。
看了《哈比人傳奇》卻沒有猜猜(第五章裡的)謎也是很可惜的事。
叫學生幫忙打了字放在 Elearn 上,卻沒讓好朋友分享是一件更可惜的事。

所以畢爾柏和孤嚕在這裡鬥智…


1.
What has roots as nobody sees,
Is taller than trees,
Up, up it goes,
And yet never grows?

2.
Thirty white horses on a red hill,
First they champ,
Then they stamp,
Then they stand still.

3.
Voiceless it cries,
Wingless flutters,
Toothless bites,
Mouthless mutters.

4.
An eye in a blue face
Saw an eye in a green face.
“That eye is like to this eye”
Said the first eye,
“But in low place
Not in high place.”

5.
It cannot be seen, cannot be felt,
Cannot be heard, cannot be smelt.
It lies behind stars and under hills,
And empty holes it fills.
It comes first and follows after,
Ends life, kills laughter.

6.
A box without hinges, key, or lid,
Yet golden treasure inside is hid,

7.
Alive without breath,
As cold as death;
Never thirsty, ever drinking,
All in mail never clinking.

8.
This thing all things devours:
Birds, beasts, trees, flowers;
Gnaws iron, bites steel;
Grinds hard stones to meal;
Slays king, ruins town,
And beats high mountain down.

9. What is in my pocket?

From The Hobbit by J. R. R. Tolkien
