I have 4 that I am struggling with, all are book titles with the name of an animal in them.
3. He's large and dressed in grey from head to foot (3,8,3)
10. Enumerating voyagers on a sojourn on the Thames (5,3,2,1,4(2,3,7,2,3,3))
17. Oriental serving death in these times (3,3)
18. He's a wrong'un (5,5)

Thanks in advance
