Conundrums, Riddles and Puzzles / Containing one thousand of the latest and best conundrums, gathered from every conceivable source, and comprising many that are entirely new and original

by Dean Rivers

My second shuns company,

My third assembles company,

My whole puzzles company.

Co-nun-drums.

Safe on a fair one’s arm my first may rest,

And raise no tumult in a husband’s breast;

To those who neither creep, nor run, nor fly,

The want of legs my second will supply.

My whole’s a rival of the fairest toast,

And when I’m liked the best I suffer most.
