Word Charade: My First aglow with borrowed light

My First aglow with borrowed light,
My Second is a ship’s dimension,
My Whole, as seen to dance by night
Au clair de lune, defies detention.

Fashion Seasons

The Riddle Book (1828)

In Spring I look gay,
Decked in comely array,
In Summer more clothing I wear.

When colder it grows,
I fling off my clothes,
And in winter quite naked appear.

What is it?

As I was going o’er London Bridge

As I was going o’er London Bridge,
I met a cart full of fingers and thumbs!

Riddle(gloves)

As I was going o’er London Bridge,
I heard something crack;
Not a man in all England
Can mend that!

Riddle(ice)

As I was going o’er London Bridge,
And peeped through a nick,
I saw four and twenty ladies
Riding on a stick.

Riddle(sparks)

As I was going o’er London bridge,
I met a drove of guinea pigs;
They were nick’d and they were nack’d,
And they were all yellow back’d.
