FOUR OLD RIDDLES

1. What is that which was born without a soul, lived and had a soul, yet died without a soul?

2)
When first my maker brought me to mind,
He gave me eyes, but left me blind;
He formed a nose which could not smell,
A mouth with no voice nor tongue to tell.
Yet oft the young and fair through me.
Though I hide the face, do plainly see.

3)
My first makes all nature appear with one face;
My second has music, beauty, and grace.
My whole, when the winter hangs dull o'er the earth,
Is the source of much pleasure, of mischief, of mirth.

4)
Join the name of a beast to a quarter of beef,
And a tree you will have with an ever-green leaf.
