Ringo's Riddle

[freeringo]

#1

The beginning of eternity.
The end of time and space.
The beginning of every end,
and the end of every place.

#2

I am the black child of a white father;
A wingless bird, flying even to the clouds of heaven.
I give birth to tears of mourning in pupils that meet me,
and at once on my birth I am dissolved into air.

Often we are covered with wisdom and wit,
and oft with a cloth where the dinner guests sit;
In beauty around you and over your head,
we are countless, though numbered when bound to be read.

There are 13 pennies on the desk. They are all in one group, 5 of them being heads and 8 being tales. You have to split them into 2 groups with the same amount of heads in both groups (you can flip the coins). The trick is, you have to do it in the dark, not knowing which coins are which.


This might take a while
