175. SHUFFLE THE LETTERS
One syllable, I help to turn the scale
Of party strife or faction;
Recast me, and two syllables avail
To stop all further action.
176. FILL IN THE VOWELS
Lines to an owl:—
HNLDTWRSTHGLMWL
THLVSTTHTTHLVSTTHWL
RNLDKSRHLLWTN
SLSTSSLMNSNDSLN
SMRNFLNNLVSTG
RFRHTNGHWLSTKNW
As a hint, the last line is:—
Or of your hooting howls to know.
