What can promote innocent mirth, and I may say virtue, more than a good riddle?

I love such mirth as does not make friends ashamed to look upon one another next morning.

It is a revenge the devil sometimes takes upon the virtuous, that he entraps them by the force of the very passion they have suppressed and think themselves superior to.

Few men have virtue to withstand the highest bidder.

Virtue is not malicious; wrong done her Is righted even when men grant they err.

The crown of terror past
The shell inside still lasts
The item you seek, a toy of the weak
Majesty downed, run around in town
To echo how naught but happy sounds
