Issue #10 (June 1982)
As drenched dragons drink draughts at the draw
In argot groans are gargoyles and gorgons arguing
Griffins tiffing stiffly at sore mantichores on the shore
Cameleopard of comely parts: come, ye leaping hearts
Unicorns, you hill born, from yews be lorn thru this morn
Lest you miss this beastly feast, this costly tryst
Go lay gentle, all agents of legends on the jewelled tiles
A dream you deem it to seem, but heed my rede a while Forsooth,
'tis a truth of couth youth, the pith of myth
Although old as a wold, gold unfolds if told in bold words..
Hobbitiphile Albert Duro writes that his poem in this issue is "a paean of tonguetwisting, to be read loud, fast, and often."
