Chrade No

My first is a dark and fearful scourge
That wicked nations sometimes feel,
But sometimes from its power emerge,
Purified by its dark ordeal.

My second, many spheres has known,
A thing of fashion, or a thing of use;
Lauded by the fickle goddess on her thrown,
Or cast aside with vile abuse
The "sphere of woman" I enlarge,
And give her charms or wider merge
Ib the kitchen cellar you will find,
I also have the power to bind

My whole, o'er many a dark and bloody ground,
Breaks on the ear of night with fearful sound,
And mothers clasp their babes with fear,
When the wild, unearthly notes they hear,
Cold runs the blood of the true and brave
As they fly to arms, their homes to save.

No
My first is the noblest work or creation; my second
is a sample vowel, very nearly related to you; [strike out: my]
in m third many useful and beautiful arts
are carried on; my whole is what puts bread
in the mouth of thousands.

No
My first is a reasoning, and should be a
reasonable aminal; my second is a tropical
spirit; my whole is an imperative command.
