Greetings all,
The last competition held was very successful (Congrats to Gunnar on his
Lightning Thinking) .
So I have decided to hold one more - last one . So again- as per Post
956, please get your Brains in gear- leave me a message if you think you
know the answer.
Prize is 5000 gold pieces - and since it didn't take too long for the
last riddle to be solved, I am bringing the time factor down to 2
"Aetolian" days . Competition will close at 6:15 pm (Sat Mar 1st) EST.
Good Luck all!!

"My first is a number, my second another,
And each, I assure you, will rhyme with the other.
My first, you will find is one-fifth of my second,
And truly my whole a long period reckoned.
Yet my first and my second (nay, think not I cozen),
When added together will make but 2 dozen.

Penned by my hand on the 19th of Haernos, in the year 93 MA.
