THIS IS HARD.
(Copied by Mary Duncan, Grey Lynn.) Can you supply tlie following: — A boat'for the river of years? A tooth for the jaws of death? A blanket for the bed of a river? A sheet for the cradle of the deep? A clip for the tie of friendship? A cushion for the seat of war? A dog to gnaw the bone of contentiou? A lid for a box on the ears? A spoke for the wheel of fortune? A spade to dig the sands of time? A button for a coat of paint? Butter for the toast of the evening? Clothes for the naked truth ? A glove for the hand of fate? A hook for the critical eye?
