This Week's Riddle
Never sleeping the giant stands
All of stone is his attire
On his shoulders he wears a watch
Men and horses he consumes entire
When danger comes and fighting looms
To him flock the old and young
And when it's time for them to leave
The giant will stick out his tongue
When sticks and stones against him fly
His burning tears can make men die
(answer is one word)
