medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
It wasn't a "waste of time" as far as I'm concerned - not only did it
raise interesting observations on the dangers of exegtical speculation
on "poetic" phrases; your last comments made me laugh out loud for the
first time in weeks. Thanks!

medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and
culture
My mind is now awash with metaphors, playing well-lit but confusing
games (sides of seven only) with each other. Some of them are rushing
around Venetian deserts bombing railway lines; others are sitting
outside canalside palazzo in Syria, doing delicate watercolours. Yet
more are dallying with Foolish Virgins, but there appear to be three
extra of these.
If servant 'L' - assumed to be Adam Lock, master of the Wells West
Front
- was as stimulated by such as I now am, it is no surprise his Elder
Lady Chapel is full of goats and monkeys who play music together, and
men clutching desperately at oversized birds.
But I do promise not to post citing sources - John's source is the
same
as mine, I have published on it and was even in the room when the
original paper was given - from memory again. My email and books are
not
co-located, but that's no excuse if it wastes others' time.
