You feed it, it lives,
You give it something to drink, it dies.

Answer


42
A red drum which sounds
Without being touched,
And grows silent,
When it is touched.

Answer

A harvest sown and reaped on the same day
In an unplowed field,
Which increases without growing,
Remains whole though it is eaten
Within and without,
Is useless and yet
The staple of nations.

Answer


44
If you break me
I do not stop working,
If you touch me
I may be snared,
If you lose me
Nothing will matter.

Answer

All about, but cannot be seen,
Can be captured, cannot be held
No throat, but can be heard.

Answer


46
I go around in circles,
But always straight ahead
Never complain,
No matter where I am led.

Answer

Lighter than what
I am made of,
More of me is hidden
Than is seen.

Answer

If a man carried my burden,
He would break his back.

But leave silver in my track.

My life can be measured in hours,
I serve by being devoured.
Thin, I am quick
Fat, I am slow
Wind is my foe.

Answer

Weight in my belly,
Trees on my back,
Nails in my ribs,
Feet I do lack.

Answer

You can see nothing else
When you look in my face
I will look you in the eye
And I will never lie.

Answer

I am always hungry,
I must always be fed,
The finger I lick
Will soon turn red.

Answer


53
Three lives have I.
Gentle enough to soothe the skin,
Light enough to caress the sky
Hard enough to crack rocks.

Answer


54
Glittering points
That downward thrust,
Sparkling spears
That never rust.

Answer


55
Each morning I appear
To lie at your feet,
All day I follow
No matter how fast you run,
Yet I nearly perish
In the midday sun.

Answer


56
Keys without locks
Yet I unlock the soul.

Answer


57
Something wholly unreal, yet seems real to I
Think my friend, tell me where does it lie?

Answer


58
So simple,
That I can only point
Yet I guide men
All over the world.

Answer


59
A beggar's brother went out to sea and drowned.
But the man who drowned had no brother.
What was the relationship between the man who drowned and the beggar?

Answer


60
For our ambrosia we were blessed,
by Jupiter, with a sting of death.
Though our might, to some is jest,
we have quelled the dragon's breath.
Who are we?
