This one is frustrating because the solution, while correct, seems also to be flawed.

spoiler

In any source I can find for Auld Lang Syne lyrics, the ending of the line goes "and never brought to mind?" That lines up just fine with the prompts:
Plus
When Pigs Fly!
Ruminated

But in the reveal, they give the solution for Ruminated as "Thought Upon".

What, why? That's not the lyric given in any source I can find, and what's more, doesn't even fit the rhyme scheme of the entire poem, in which the first line of each stanza/verse ends with a rhyme for "syne". Confusing.

Has anyone got a link to a source that can corroborate/justify this "alternate" lyric?
