Yeah. I sat and stared at the first two lines for several minutes before I guessed a word with an odd letter combo for my third try. That broke the dam, and the fourth try was in the realm of, “Oh, well, then it’s gotta be this...”

I benefit, I suppose, from having read literature from just about every period from the Elizabethan era forward, so there’s a lot of odd vocabulary tucked away in the crevices of my brain.

Sometimes, these words are awfully difficult to figure out. And here I’m thinking, “It’s only five letters long, how hard can it be?” Yeah. THAT hard!
