Where your Cup is a ragin’
First run from town to the treasure
To which 1.4 or 8.7 times will bring you pleasure

Be humble hunting our friends
Remember our rules is a tip we shall lend
Over near the giant tower
Do your hunting, you’ll need to scour

Remember all of our earlier clues?
It’s letter one of each line - for the gumshoes
Cite the words – the meaning of clues
Kick it in to high gear - you know what to do

Looking low is how to go
Even though you’re on high ground
As you look to the end, and the knees do bend
Forget about going around

Pretend you’re an ant
In an area scant
Near a circular road
Et al ends our treasure code
Explanation:
Directs you to look on high ground near the circular road around the water tower. It also directs you to look at the first letter of each line of each clue. In this case (BRODRICK – LEAF– PINE).

Read on back to the seventh clue
Enlightening words tell you what to do
Move on up to the leaf and pine
Embrace the memory of people so fine

Many a leaf will cover the ground
Be careful and move your hands around
Ever mindful; go north of the tower
Reach but avoid a pretty flower
Explanation:
Tells you where to look for the treasure. (R-E-M-E-M-B-E-R)
