What little I know of English literature I know is what I have learned outside my college studies from my father and the interest created by him. But still I am stumped when it comes to quotes from Shakespeare/ Keats/ Milton and others. What you study in college is much wider & deeper and learned at a younger age when it stays better in one's mind. I find myself at a disadvantage, fighting against odds,you may say.Padmanabhanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06278629397479779173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2195377761774996603.post-34087458544136321342013-01-12T10:48:13.668+05:302013-01-12T10:48:13.668+05:30Today's clue completes the "Dasavataram&#...Today's clue completes the "Dasavataram'!Padmanabhanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06278629397479779173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2195377761774996603.post-14585371139124245172013-01-12T10:47:01.880+05:302013-01-12T10:47:01.880+05:30'Siva' replaces 'or I'!'Siva' replaces 'or I'!Padmanabhanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06278629397479779173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2195377761774996603.post-47708699230407871412013-01-12T09:58:33.436+05:302013-01-12T09:58:33.436+05:30Maybe you can try cluing it with Sivagami !Maybe you can try cluing it with Sivagami !Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2195377761774996603.post-49191136764093797562013-01-12T09:57:47.148+05:302013-01-12T09:57:47.148+05:30You mean you 'fold' ?
