The Late Queen Gives in to Remorse - Reverse Hangman












39












$begingroup$



Add a "C", I am what has been,

Add a "G", I might be a queen,

Add a "P", I'll turn away from sin

Add an "L" and I may just give in.




This is a Reverse Hangman puzzle, see here for an example.



The final answer will be a string with one letter blank which can be filled in in several different ways to form a valid word (e.g, "_at" can make bat, cat, fat, hat, etc).



In your answer, please give the string with the missing letter and explain each line.

          The answer is:




          re_ent




          Add a "C", I am what has been,




          Recent: something that has happened in the immediate past.




          Add a "G", I might be a queen,




          Regent: a person that could govern if the current monarch is unable to fulfill their duties.




          Add a "P", I'll turn away from sin




          Repent: when you repent of your sins, it means you're regretful and you will probably turn away from sinning again.




          Add an "L" and I may just give in.




          Relent: relenting can mean giving in to a request, yielding.
