      The clue for HARD in Arthur Wynne’s original puzzle was “What this puzzle is”. Apparently he wanted to REALLY stress how HARD it was and couldn’t be bothered to just change it to HARM/MOVE to avoid the dupe. (DOVE had two different clues, at least - “a bird” and “a pigeon”)

        How far we've come! For any (variety) cryptic crossword solvers, I recommend Kevin Wald's puzzle based on the original grid.
