If this blithering wizard doesn't go away at once, and if he ever so much as paddles in the sea again, I shall COME OUT; and I shall eat him first, and then I shall knock everything to dripping smithereens.
The Sea-serpent, speaking of Artaxerxes in Roverandom

(It took me awhile to figure out 'smithereens' - not exactly an everyday word! After that, it was easy.)

Guinevere 11-17-2005 02:40 PM

correct
 
I always thought this was a funny word! :)

Estelyn Telcontar 11-17-2005 03:05 PM

Ah! (I wondered what that 2-letter word could be :D )

" There is an inscription on this sheath, and some, ah, epigraphical signs are visible also upon the sword."

The parson of Ham to Farmer Giles.

Estelyn Telcontar 11-18-2005 03:37 PM

Yes indeed, Guinevere! I thought the parson sounds like I feel sometimes, puzzling over the letters to make sense of them. Your turn.

Guinevere 11-19-2005 01:09 PM
