Re: Any cryptic minds out there
I don't think so and it would give me a word ending in 'u'.The cryptic part is Died in Battle?
I thought of fell (in battle) but it doesn't relate to cruel. Then I though of 'evil' but that doesn't make sense.
I thought also it was something to 1066, but no.
My only other thought was a three letter battle ending in L with a D in the middle that means cruel.
We need more help methinks

Twelfth Night Scene 1 Act 1.
That instant was I turn'd into a hart;
And my desires, like fell and cruel hounds,
E'er since pursue me.

Does noose fit with anything else for the first one? I'm not convinced but it's got NOSE with an O in it...

Re: Any cryptic minds out there
Todays crossword is impossible. I'm too ashamed to say how badly I've done.
Can anyone help with this one.
