〔R17〕 A noun there is of plural number, Foe to peace and tranquil slumber; Now any other noun you take, By adding “s” you plural make, But if you add an “s” to this, Strange is the metamorphosis: Plural is plural now no more, And sweet what bitter was before. 〔译注〕 有个名词的复数形， 敌对平静和安祥的睡眠； 这时你拿任何其它名词， 加上 “s” 你就制造出复数， 可是如果你加个 “s” 到这个， 怪的是这个的变形： 复数的现在已经不再是复数， 而以前是苦的现在是甜的。 〔提问〕 If the word has five letters and rhymes (押韵) with “nightmares” (恶梦), what is it?
