No. 2.
THREE ENIGMAS.
1.
| My first is in bird, but not in hen. |
| My second in owl, but not in wren. |
| My third in snipe, but not in quail. |
| My fourth in boat, but not in sail. |
| My fifth in olive, but not in fig. |
| My sixth in branch, but not in twig. |
| My whole is a city famed far and wide, |
| Whose shores are washed by the Atlantic tide. |
