Can anybody supply the answer to this riddle. "In the morn when I rise,I open my eyes tho I ne'er sleep a wink all night.If I wake e'er so soon,I still lie till noon and pay no regard to the light. I have loss I have gain,I have pleasure and pain and am punished with many a stripe.To diminish my woe,I burn friend and foe and my evenings I end with a pipe.I travel abroad and ne'er miss my road unless I am met by a stranger.If you come in my way which you very well may,you will always be subject to danger.I am chaste I am young, I am lusty and strong and my habits oft change in a day.To court I ne'er go am no lady nor beau yet as frail and fantastic as they.I live a short time,I die in my prime,lamented by all who possess me. If I add any more to what's said before I'm afraid you will easily guess me.
