Cion (?)

MargoTester

I think 1a is skip - hence sion??

Lie-in King

Could also be 'Sien' or 'Syen' - both Shakespearean versions of 'scion'

MargoTester

Actually lie-king. Think Shen is probably correct as 4a is 'cry of grief, which would then by 'yo' not 'io' which is what I had!! Didn't think that made much sense

Question Author

Thank you all, I have gone for "sion" which fits in with what I have.
However 4a. Cry of grief works out as "io" do you think that is correct. A bit dim today, blame it on the weather.

MargoTester

Sorry meant syen

Lie-in King

Could "cry of grief" be 'Wo' (archaic version of "woe") (?)

Lie-in King

I can't find 'Sion' working as "offshoot"...

MargoTester

Unless 1d is shin which would give you ho for cry of grief!! We'll have to wait and see what the answer is tomorrow - ho ho!!
