Hello all.
I'm fairly new to Sleuth and I thought I might share a little hobby of mine with you all. Here's something for that sad moment when the mysteries of the day are all done.

Thousands lay up gold within this house,
but no man made it.
Spears past counting guard this house,
but no man wards it.
What is it?

OK, here's is a riddle Fiona Applepare arrives home from work. She just realized that her library book was overdue, but quickly cast aside the matter. She consumed a cognac or two, and went to work to take care of her 2 year old daughter. When she finished her dinner, she went to bed. Her husband came home to see 3 awful things on the bed: #1 is his wife's dead body. #2 is________, and #3 is_____________. What are numbers two and three.

The librarian killed her. He used #2, the murder weapon- a heavy book. #3 was an "overdue" slip, the final clue... gawd, that story's old!

No Orbitrux the answer to the third riddle isn't socks. Not even close.

Is the other riddle too hard?
No guesses?

I've checked the boards, MarcusAndrew- I am shocked that you didn't spot the sequence instantly.
