Activity

My first is in Flour but not in Rye,
My second is in Wet but not in Dry,
My third is in Bellow but not in Cry;
My fourth is in Rod but never in Whip,
My fifth is in Running but never in Skip,
My sixth is in Yawl but never in Ship;
My seventh is in Error but not in Miss
My eight in ecstasy not in Bliss,–
My whole, alas, for its cold, cold kiss!
