  <abstract>"At the Sign of the Sphinx. Second series" by Carolyn Wells is a collection of puzzle poems written in the early 20th century, specifically around the year 1906. This book presents a series of riddles and wordplay that invite readers to explore language and engage in creative thinking. The likely topic centers on the intricacies of language, humor, and the challenge of solving intellectual puzzles.  In this collection, each riddle is crafted with clever wordplay and layered meanings, prompting readers to decipher the puzzles presented. The structure typically begins with clues that hint at the answer, often involving playful connections between parts of words and broader themes. For instance, one riddle might explore the dual meanings of a word while referencing historical or literary figures. As readers venture through the pages, they'll encounter an engaging variety of topics ranging from natural elements to cultural references, encouraging a delightful interplay of thought and discovery as they work towards the often surprising solutions to each riddle.
