Visual Description: A highly rated ruler rising up the ranks.
MUSIN = MINUS, REVVE = VERVE, URIADS = RADIUS, TALPEA = PALATE — Giving us: MUERDUSPAE
Clue/Question: The prince became the ruler because he . . .
Answer: “MEASURED“ UP
(I’d say this one has a fairly high difficulty rating. It took me a couple of minutes to get “radius”. The other clue words were OK too. Good scrambling of the answer letters. The answer makes for a nice (non-risqué) double entendré. They do give us a few visual clues in the cartoon. The balcony railing and the upper background do resemble the marks on a ruler. I’ll bet a good number of you had at least some difficulty getting today’s answer. Although, that is always hard for me to gauge. Great start to the week! Do good, people.) — YUR
