  3. Thirty white horses on a red hill,
    first they champ,
    then they stamp,
    Then they still stand still.

    Voices it cries,
    wingless flutters,
    toothless bites,
    mouthless mutters.

    a box with hinges, key or lid,
    yet golden treasure inside is hid.



    mine: What belongs to you but others use it more than you do?

  5. A few riddles are: " Alive without breath,As cold as death, Never thirsty:ever drinking, All in mail never clinking.", " This thing all things devours: Birds, beasts, trees, flowers;Gnaws iron, bites steel, grinds hard stones to meal; Slays kings, ruins town, And beats high mountain down." also "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.Not sure...are we supposed to post out summary..? Well, what happened was Bilbo and Gollum had a riddle battle and golloum got mad and chased Bilbo because he asked what was in his pockets.

  7. Bilbo's situation did not help his worried mind, and to to it off he had to think of a riddle that would trick a slimy creature called Gollum. The stakes are high, if Bilbo doesn't answer all of Gollums riddles, Gollum will eat him. But if Gollum doesn't answer all of Billbos' Gollum will have to show him the way out. The Riddles subjects had a wide range. One was... What has roots as nobody sees, Is taller than trees, Up,up it goes And yet never grows? Lucky for Billbo it was easy. A mountain of course.another describes the dark as Ends Life and Kills laughter.
    but the Riddle that saved Billbo was simply "What's in my pocket?"

  9. 1. Voiceless it cries,
    Wingless it flutters,
    Toothless bites,
    Mouthless mutters.

    2. A box without hinges,key or lid,
    Yet golden teasure inside is hid,

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

    My riddle is:
    They look for answers,
    In a world that answers none of them at all,
    They search for facts that are not shown,
    But in the end, they seem to always come up with answer.

  11. Describe 3 riddles that Gollum and Bilbo exchange and share one of your own.


    He is in a tight situation. He HAS to figure out a way to trick Golumn. It will be hard to trick him and make up the riddles, but he has to try. One way he tries is "Voiceless it cries, wingless flutters, toothless bites, Mouthless mutters." Bilbo got it correct. Next, bilbo says "An eye in a blue face Saw an eye in a green face. "That eye is like this eye." Said the first eye "But not in a low place, in a high place."" Next, Bilbo says \" A box without hinges, key or lid, yet golden treasure inside is hid. Then bbilbo said, "Whats in my pocket?"

    My riddle is "What is it, that is inside,
    You will never know unless you try..."
