Crossword 343: Dealing with Affronts

November 29, 2025 David Bywaters

Daniel Maclise - Scene from Ben Jonson's 'Every Man in His Humour'


True happiness comes, I have found, not from riches or love or power, but simply from the ability to endure calmly the many affronts—to common sense, to simple morality, to good taste—that the world forces upon us every day. This puzzle is designed to give you practice in cultivating that invaluable skill.
