Title: Looking for rhyming riddle
Post by Lou on Feb 25th, 2003, 11:19am
Hello,

I am working on a story set in 1860's England. I am looking for a riddle (existing or made up) that would sound like a nursery rhyme and to which the answer would be: "Geometry" or a FreeMason-related theme (solving the riddle would lead the young protag to a book on the subject).

Any help or hint appreciated. Thanks  :)

Lou

How about something like:

I have two legs but never race,
I only turn and pace.
My brother has two legs as well,
But only right can tell.
