CHARADES. 119

CHARADE LIX.

MY first, 1 hope you are; my second, I see you are;
and my whole I know you are.

 

CHARADE LX.
Mi Y first, ye fair, is ever at your side;
My next may guard you from insulting pride;
My whole’s an ornament you often wear
Around your waist, your neck, or flowing hair.

 

CHARADE LXI.
EHOLD my first in sable hue;

View it again in azure blue;
Sometimes carnation’s not more bright;
Again, it seems a milky white.

My second, I must make confession,
Is a most choice and rich possession,
Which all enjoy; for rich and poor
Possess alike this valued store.

My whole is form’d of glass and lead,
And alway rises o’er our head.
