WordsWorth Caves

So you're mining...

And you come across a WordsWorth Caves.

These are caves in which there are cracks on the floor, and when you erm "get a ticket" the Trolg will pop up and ask you to answer its question.

What question? you may ask. Well it gives you a poem and you have to spell out the composer's name.

If you're correct he'll throw you over the crack in the floor and you can continue mining.

If you're wrong you'll have to try again.

IF YOU WANT A MORE CONVENIENT WAY TO FIND THE POEMS, SIMPLY PRESS ON YOUR KEYBOARD Ctrl + F AND THEN THE FIND FEATURE POPS UP.
Simply type in the first few words of the poem and you'll find it here  (probably)
