If you called my name into this well
you’ll either go straight here to Hell
or answer every word I tell.
Now listen when the time began
what was here and what in the end
will come of all what none can mend?
You may guess and wonder, and twice can blunder
but third time lady, third time answer right.
If you don’t guess third time you’d be all mine,
and Ill take you lady, Ill keep you in the night.
That must be nothing!
Well, nothing, that was easy, quite,
but listen, second time be right,
lest nevermore you’ll see the light.
Who spoke the first word in the dark
and likewise made there light from a spark
who ordered Noah to build his Ark?
Who’s that lady?
You may guess and wonder, and twice can blunder
but third time lady, third time answer right.
If you don’t guess third time you’d be all mine,
and Ill take you lady, Ill hide you from the light.
That’s Man of course!
The third riddle is none too hard
Let be your cue a Tarot card
and nothing quite like Queen of Hearts.
She walks the field through barley-ears
and mows the weeds and mows the years
and nothing’s what she sees and hears.
Who’s that, lady?
Two times you wondered and made no blunder
but third time lady, third time you were wrong!
Well, this was easy, yea, pretty easy
it’s death my lady, and death take you ere long.
