My fish in Mariveles has manifold scales.
Pepper
Scales laid upon one another; the seeds of the pepper are flat and stacked against one another.
401.
Mahanghang hindi naman paminta; maputi hindi naman papel; verde hindi naman suha; turang mong bigla.
(Tag.) Rabanos

Radish
402.
Ang iloy naga camang ang bata naga pungco.
(Bis.) Calabaza

Squash
The mother is the vine; the child is the fruit. The riddle gains point, by suggesting a reversal of the natural conditions.

(Iloc.) Tabungao
What creature of Lord G.o.d has no eyes, no mouth, no a.n.u.s--and eats _ladoc-ladoc_?
A white squash

404.
Berdi ya balat, malutu ya laman anti mo ing pacuan.
(Pamp.) Pacuan

Verde ang balat pula ang laman espectorante cung turan.
(Tag.) Pacuan
Green skin, red meat, _espectorante_ they call it.
Watermelon
Vision.

It runs having no feet and it roars having no mouth.
