Week 5 - Sudoku

Post by Prof. Tarma Amelia Black »

Is this familiar to you?

Or, a vision in a dream. A Fragment.

In Xanadu did Kubla Khan
A stately pleasure-dome decree:
Where Alph, the sacred river, ran
Through caverns measureless to man
Down to a sunless sea.

Samuel Taylor Coleridge wrote that after waking up from a deep sleep; these were words of a poem he had composed while asleep, and he tried to remember the words of the epic poem. He remembered only a few hundred lines, a fragment, of something much larger.

Here is, for your pleasure, a Sudoku - using 'Coleridge' as symbols for the game. (The second 'e' of the name is done in a distinctly different font, so it can be clearly discerned as different from the first 'e'.)

EDIT:
Thank you, Anne-Marie Gagne, for kindly noting that I :o PosTED the ANsWeR.
This post will be edited with another, new, Sudoku, which shows the actual puzzle ..... No, it will not have the same answer as the image which I posted before!
EDIT the SECOND: The puzzle is now new and different! Again, Thank you, Anne-Marie. :)


Solve the Sudoku, then send your answer to Book Club Head Emily Spencer and me (Professor Tarma Amelia Black) in a Forum PM titled Poetry - Sudoku.

You’ll earn 20 beans for a correct solution if you submit it before 23:59 HOL-time on the 20th of August!

Kindly note that there is an actual puzzle in the post above, now. If you had picked up the puzzle earlier, and was ... well ... puzzled because it looked like the solution, you were correct.

Thank you, Anne-Marie! :)
