A group of four brothers did travel the land,
with only one steed shared among the whole band.
Though always surefooted, no matter the weather,
their mount would go lame if they didn’t ride together.
When one of the brothers was thrown and misplaced,
he was left where he lay and was quickly replaced.
When the ride became old and the brothers not needed,
to a game for all ages they simply retreated.
When many a player would fling them about,
and ringing a post was the victory shout.

Name us.

In English, “re” is a prefix usually meaning “again”, such as in “rebuild” (build again). However, there are many words starting with “re” which have a totally different meaning without the “re”.

You will be given two definitions, one for a word starting with “re”, and one for the remaining word without the “re” (either definition could be given first).
Example: exhausting / ceasing employment
Answer: tiring / retiring

1. difficult search / politely ask
2. trustworthy / legally responsible
3. hospital room / prize for achievement
4. back in good health / put something over
5. rhythmic force in arteries / drive back by force
6. smooth by ironing / subdue by force
7. become less severe / provided in loan
8. process of updating / act of seeing

They say I came from Africa.
I suppose that may be true.
But the type I am was mostly played
In a place where grass is blue.
Of wood and pearl, skin and steel,
You could say I am high strung.
My neck looks like a ladder,
With brass on every rung.
