"You're good at ciphers, aren't you, Dad?" said PEggy
"I've solved a few in my time," said her father.
"Have a stab at this one." On a half-sheet of paper Peggy had printed:
IMPS ELUDE
NEWS-RIME
-NERO
"It doesn't seem to make much sense said Peggy's father. "What's the big idea?"
"Transliteration," said Peggy.
"Absurd, my good girl. There's not nearly enough material."
"I knew you'd say that," said PEggy, grinning. "Have a go, all the same. It has been described as too wonderful."
Can you-with the aid of the hint-transliterate Peggy's cipher?
