Unlike tricoleuse knitting room – I hadn’t much fun by light of moon. The crows at dawn abated soon. I fairly swoon – I fairly swoon. *tricoleuse: One of a number of women who sat knitting while attending public executions during the French Revolution. (3 syllables per Howmanysyllables, but no stressed syllable identified) Famously referred to in A Tale of Two Cities, by Charles Dickens
