A closure in a q string

Problem

Start from the non-interpolating q form and switch on the closure adverb only. Given a variable $x holding 10, print a line that contains the embedded calculation {$x ** 2} and a literal, un-interpolated $x. This shows that the closure adverb evaluates code in braces while leaving plain $ variables untouched.

Example

The program prints:

$x squared is 100
