Talk:For Want of a Clue, Part 2/@comment-31753487-20170617163813

One idea that had promise, but fizzled out... at least it would be a good idea for a new puzzle :)

Each couplet is written in a quadrameter, ie 4 stresses per line. Some lines are in iambic and others are in trochaic.. but with no pattern I could see. If you take the first letter of each stressed syllable, you end up with 8 letters per scrap. Putting this into a grid, there's a suspiciously high concentration of letters from puzzle answers.
