My first is but lately promoted
To a place in our language, and quoted.
My second it lives in the sea.
On the hill-tops it flourishes free.
My whole I should certainly call
A delectable dainty for all.

AN ENIGMA-CHARADE
Take in my first, and you will find
It helps you to make up your mind.
Write to my second, and behold
You see into the secret told.

A QUAINT CHARADE
By Charles James Fox
My first is expressive of no disrespect,
But I never call you by it when you are by;
If my second you still are resolved to reject,
As dead as my whole I shall presently lie.
