Title: A Riddle in Triads
Text type / Format: Poetry
Source / Fandom: Notion Club Papers, The Hobbit,
Prompt: Silver and Gold, Welsh Triads
Rating: G

Notes: See the first comment for the answer and notes
Summary: A puzzle



Three things there are that I may move:
The fastened door,
An organ's board,
The range within a song

Three things there are that I may hold:
A mason's arch
A heart in alt
The secret of a code

Three things there are that I may keep
A clock in time
A string in tune
The reading of a map

Three things there are that I may show
The answers plain
The path revealed
The gold within a scroll

With brazen bit and silver bow
I am the answer to myself: who am I?
