CROSS-WORD ENIGMA.
My first is in branch, but not in tree;
My second in land, but not in sea;
My third is in orange, but not in seed;
My fourth is in plants, but not in weed;
My fifth is in first, but not in third;
My sixth is in mouse, but not in bird;
My seventh in smile, but not in pout;
My whole the world would look lonely without.
