72.

Pronounced as one letter, and written with three,

Two letters there are, and two only in me;

I’m double, I’m single, I’m black, blue, and gray,

I am read from both ends, and the same either way,

I am restless and wandering, steady and fixed,

And you know not one hour what I may be the next.

I melt, and I kindle—beseech, and defy,

I am watery and moist, I am fiery and dry.
