Also very important is Isis/Hera/Juno (clues: bird, insanity, light, rising, Sirius)].

    • French and American revolution, and liberal politics [Clues: politicians].
  • Find the alchemy by putting 'the jigsaw puzzle' together following the clues [The clues must explain why there was a riddle in the first place].
