As it is given that C leaves the station before F leaves, but after D leaves, i.e. D > C > F.
So D C F can be the order of their departure.
E leaves the station before B leaves, who leaves before
F leaves, i.e. E > B > F.
So E B F can be the order of their departure.
A leaves the station after F and C leave the station,
i.e. C > F> A.
So A is the last person to leave as shown below.

The given conditions are as follows.
P, Q, R are three girls.
A, B, C are three boys.
Q is taller than R i.e. Q > R.
C is taller than Q i.e. C > Q.
C is taller than A i.e. C > A.
P is taller than B i.e. P > B.
B is taller than C i.e. B > C.
Now, the arrangement can be as follows.
C > Q > R and P > B > C and C > R.
Now, after considering all the above given conditions, the
The arrangement is as follows.


P is the tallest of all.

The given conditions are as follows.
P, Q, R are three girls.
A, B, C are three boys.
Q is taller than R i.e. Q > R.
C is taller than Q i.e. C > Q.
C is taller than A i.e. C > A.
P is taller than B i.e. P > B.
B is taller than C i.e. B > C.
Now, the arrangement can be as follows.
C > Q > R and P > B > C and C > R.
Now, after considering all the above given conditions, the
The arrangement is as follows.


R is the shortest among the three girls. P > Q > R.

It is given that R is 3rd from the bottom and V is 2nd from the top, then R and U have only one line between them, i.e. either S or P. Now the possible arrangement will be as Follows.

So, T or S or P has to be in line 1 and the poem starts with T or S or P.
