These fresh words, placed on the white squares, must read alike from side to side, and zigzag from top to bottom. The first word is MASK.
24. A SINGLE ACROSTIC
What river is that, where it is found,
Which Pope says does with eels abound?
What Scottish lake, by high hills bounded,
Is with bright birch and oak surrounded?
What stream is said in Devon to run
Into the sea near Otterton?
What bay on Cuba’s distant coast
Is justly deemed its pride and boast?
The initials of these names will show
A Scotch reformer, who, we know,
Flourished three hundred years ago.
No. XLI.—A WORD SQUARE BY ANAGRAM
Take the letters which form the words in these sixteen cells—
| A | F | A | R |
| T | A | S | K |
| S | E | A | T |
| L | E | A | L |
and recast them so that they form a perfect word square.
