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?

I don't know if this riddle has been given yet, but -

Think of words ending in -GRY. Angry and hungry are two of them. There are only three words in the English language. What is the third word? The word is something that everyone uses every day. If you have listened carefully, I have already told you what it is.

The third word is "pugry".
Princess, is the first one a book? Is the second one, nobody?

What's black and white and red all over? Besides the obvious? A sunburnt zebra or an embarrassed penguin! :D

No, you guys, there really are only three words in the English language that end with -gry. The third one pugry, is a middle-eastern headpiece. Sam's riddle, was just a knowledge thing, not really a riddle. I've heard it before.
