PUZZLE: Rice Milk #21 – Irish Bank Holiday

FIRST (7) / SECOND (7) / THIRD (“2 2 2 7”)

Justice Kennedy’s lines our hearts stirred,
As if ten SECOND polished each word.
With emotional bursts,
Legal prose jacked on FIRSTs!
Bans on gay marriage nullified — THIRD

This flat includes a letter bank: FIRST and SECOND are transposals of each other and each consists of seven different letters. THIRD is made up of all seven letters along with some duplications of those letters.
