4 Letters:
-1. duty / booty -2. the weight of a container / imp -3. power / word with table or gold -4. send out / docile -5. support / type of wine -6. wetland plant / precious -7. predicament / appear -8. Ovaltine ingredient / harsh criticism -9. hoodlum / implement -10. ominous / alum (d,g)
5 Letters:
-11. pulls / old weapon -12. rubber / part of a flower -13. tangle / crowbar -14. dice game / trigger -15. honorable / body joint -16. postpone / allude to -17. fiend / like an igloo -18. distinction / beat (m,t)
Did you ever stop to think and then forget to start again?
