>You are all to find five green things mentioned in the Harry Potter
series.

All are from the US hardback edition of Chamber of Secrets.

1- "Stand back," said Lockhart, who was rolling up his jade-green 
sleeves.  P. 173 

2- Neville Longbottom bought a large, evil-smelling green onion, a 
pointed purple crystal, and a rotting newt tail before the other 
Gryffindor boys pointed out he was in no danger; he was a pure-blood, 
and therefore unlikely to be attacked.  P. 185

3- The Slytherin common room was a long, low underground room with 
rough stone walls and ceiling from which round, greenish lamps were 
hanging on chains. P. 221

4- His eyes are as green as a fresh pickled toad,
   His hair is as dark as a blackboard.
   I wish he was mine, he's really divine,
   The here who conquered the Dark Lord.
   P.238

5- Robes, jade-green, lilac, midnight-blue, had been hastily folded 
into one of them; books were jumbled untidily into the other. P. 296


	A Goldfeesh -who wonders at the Sorting Hat putting her in 
Slytherin, not being too ambitious or cunning and so likely destined
to be a lowly sycophant...

        He saw an animal as smooth as glass
        Slithering his way through the grass.
        Saw him disappear by a tree near a lake . . .
               Dylan, "Man Gave Names to All the Animals
           (the next, though unsung, line logically being:
              "Ah, think I'll call it a snake.")
