Week of Temperance

(solved)

Daily: 10/8/2008

All men are like grass, and all

their glory is like the first of six

groups of the field.

TNIV, 1 Peter

Analysis

• "first of six" likely referring to the Faithless Fourteen puzzle - first letter of the sixth word of each lyric

Solution

• Group: FLOWERS ("first of six groups" replaced "flowers")

Daily: 10/9/2008

Whoever steals from another

has stolen from God. He deems

any man who desires foreign

gold as desiring foreign ideas.

Second to none, your Lord can

take heart in your will to leave

it behind at the gate, casting

off what you have left.

TNIV, Exodus

Analysis

• "behind at the gate" similar to "beyond the gate"?

Solution

• Group: JEWELRY (figured out after the puzzle's pattern was determined)

Daily: 10/10/2008

The word that you too desire

will be invoked at least tenfold.

Analysis

• Theory: "you too desire" refers to U2's song Desire, where "desire" is repeated over 10 times

Solution

• Group: MONEY (see above)

Daily: 10/11/2008

Mighty kings may keep

hundreds of pomegranates

carefully chained in rows.

But the humble man knows

where atop their pillars they

would go.

Analysis

Solution

• Group: CAPITALS (the pomegranates were on the capitals (TNIV) of the pillars)

Daily: 10/12/2008

Consider: If those who worship

with the multitudes worship "in

large denominations," how shall

those who worship in splinter

groups worship?

Analysis

• Theory: "large denominations" = money?

Solution

• Group: INSECTS (in splinter groups = "in sects")

Daily: 10/13/2008

You who would cast the first

stone, learn from the Quileute

speakers: "Condemns" is not

in their vocabulary.

Analysis

• The Quileute language is one of five known languages to not have sounds for M or N, thus "condemns" = "codes"

Solution

• Group: CODES (see above)

Weekly: 10/14/2008

Though inclement weather may

rise, I shall not hide in a barn like

a mouse. My future is not some

treasure locked in a shrine out of

my reach. The pan of daily bread

that is mine is at my beck and call,

send from above like parts of an

angelic aria. The warring factions

shall obey me, for even a hound

can sip from a chalice.

Analysis
