In each row, find a 3-letter word whose letters, in some order, can also be used to complete the 7-, 6-, 5-, and 4-letter words. If you'd like to increase the challenge and amuse the rest of us, please answer by using all five words in one sentence. -1. cu-l--s, -rre--, t---e, m---, --- -2. -i-le-t, re---t, --ri-, --r-, --- -3. e-cla--, -i--ng, a--o-, --n-, --- -4. his--r-, --s-er, --u-h, --n-, --- -5. re--or-, -is--r, -ka--, r---, --- -6. c---ble, m-r-u-, --be-, d---, --- -7. tra---r, -ot--n, --as-, -a--, --- -8. -r--ise, pr---t, --iu-, --e-, --- -9. wh---er, --sce-, ---ll, l---, --- -10. ---ddle, -n--er, -h--l, ---h, ---

6. I drank rum while listening to the murmur of the crowd and the noise from the umber drum which made the wall crumble.
