Arab Map of the World With the South at the Top

(Ibn Hawqal, 10th century)

 

 

Plainsong puzzle.

No rush to mean.

Duodenum inlet.

Dotty.  Green.

 

Holes in the hills.

Oval worldview.

Hawqal on a roll.

Foiled fold snafu.

 

Truro on the ulna.

Truro on the ulna.

 

Terre vert, vinegar,

Urine, honey, salt.

Lambent vellum riff.

Simmered down gestalt.

 

Trouble on the sea.

Bug proboscis cay.

Bang a left east

To slack-jaw bay.

 

Truro on the ulna.

Truro on the ulna.
