RIDDLE by ANONYMOUS

First Line: "HIGHTY, TIGHTY, PARADIGHTY / CLOTHED ALL IN GREEN"
Last Line: BUT WAS NOT A BEAST
Subject(s): RIDDLES;
HIGHTY, tighty, paradighty,
Clothed all in green,
The king could not read it,
No more could the queen;
They sent for the wise men
From out of the East,
Who said it had horns,
But was not a beast.
