We came as far as "O mind you poo tickly." (144.34)

Covered the question 9 and its answer too, and started the long question 10. In the question 9, we met Camelot, Hamelt (the prince of dinmurk), goats and sheep (gouty hands... sleepish feet) which should entertain hopeinhaven (Hope in heaven or Copenhagen?) and finally the seven colors of the rainbow. (rose rude, oragious, gelb and greek, blue, ind, Violet).

Question 10 is about love and yearning (bitter's love but yurning). Not only do Romeo and Juliet make an appearance as Jolio and Romeune but also Majnun makes an appearance, albeit without his Layla, disguised in a pseudo Spanish sentence, Andoo musnoo play zeloso! (Read here the Persian version of the star-crossed love story of Layla and Majnun or watch here the 1953 Hindi movie, Laila and Majnu, based on the Indian version of the story.)
