Set to an Elizabethan lute piece (played on guitar, I wish I had a lute hahah) although it seems this has actually fit the riddle well. This ancient recording features the Welsh king Hwyel Dda himself as an old man of many years in the 10th century, reading out an Exeter riddle to the scribes on a dark, gloomy day of rather terrible weather to brighten the mood. The king's scribes provide no answer as their dialect is Brythonic.
