text_original: Because I'm troubled much with laziness, These rhymes I've chosen for their easiness. [Footnote 1: N.B.  You told me you forgot your Greek.] DR. SHERIDAN TO DR. SWIFT 1718 Dear Dean, since in _cruxes_ and _puns_ you and I deal, Pray why is a woman a sieve and a riddle? 'Tis a thought that came into my noddle this morning, In bed as I lay, sir, a tossing and turning. You'll find if you read but a few of your histories, All women, as Eve, all women are mysteries.
