If your survival depends on having steaks, will your very survival be at stake? If you're in a cozy bar when you start feeling tender, should you cozy up to the bartender? If you have to study the dew with diligence, should you study it with dew diligence? If you meet a wise nun and the wisest nun, will you still be none the wiser?
Puns and double entendres such as these emerge when you mercilessly mingle idioms with homonyms and their kin, and play around with their literal meanings. As a sequel to Son of a Pun, the hundreds of such entries in Dew Diligence are just as lively, just as exuberant. You will think that as long as the author does not abandon puns, he will continue to pun with abandon.
