CHARADE.

My first is an action common to all,
'Tis done by the great, and done by the small.
My second a measure will proclaim
Known by the world, if not to fame.
My third is a weed that grows in the marsh;
It's sometimes smooth, and sometimes harsh.
But what is my whole, I hear you cry,
The name of a hero, is my reply.
Cent A. Piece.
