132. A CHARADE
My first is pretence,
My second a dandy;
When fogs are most dense
My whole will be handy.
133. A DECISIVE ANAGRAM
Can you prove by anagram that, whatever may be true of other plays accredited to Shakespeare, Bacon had certainly no hand in “Much Ado About Nothinge,” if we adopt the old spelling of the final word?
134. RATHER OBSCURE
Use all your wits to guess my all,
Can any guess it right?
Transposed, and never seen at all,
It still is felt in sight.
Behead, transpose, then let it be,
And you at last a clue may see.
