And here\'s me thinking Tantamount referred to Santa (who lisps) talking about his mount of Santa\'s presents.

Thanks CHRIS ~ Pleased you liked it and the PICTURE ! For a LADY to wear MAUVE lipstick & matching nail vanish ~ She has to be as beautiful as Angela & Yourself ~ I love the MASKS they have in Venice for the Carnival ~ elegant and decadent ! The mask must complement the cosmetics ~

Buongiorno Caro Amico BRIAN...
Enjoying your WORDS&ORIGINS. I always thought the Italian origin for masquerade was mascherata or maschera! I like the words you’re choosing to highlight their meanings and origins! Bravo!

Yes, \'tis educational on \'ere! thanks Brian. They clasted those icons in a blitz centuries ago! Somewhen it was. I was probably there in person, but ages ago!
Not that I\'m against icons, as long we don\'t worship statues.

Erm, I have a \'series\' too sometime, though it\'s on \'Formal Funerary Prayers\' (funerals). Sounds gloomy, but it\'s not!

WORDS & ORIGINS !
orchidee said:

A fine write Brian. I often spelt it \'Agorophobia\', bit it\'s \'Agoraphobia\' - the Roman \'Agora\' open-space, market-place?
But the opposite is \'claustrophobia\', not \'claustraphobia\'!
I could do with knowing more words for me rhyming stuff!

orchidee said:

As long as your version is not like \'The Message\', I say - can\'t stand it! I don\'t mind fairly modern, but I think it says \'Whooppee\' or something like that. Cringe!

CHRISTMAS DAY !
orchidee said:

Lovely write Brian. Seasons Greetings to you and yours.
I don\'t like the \'Mass\' bit of \'Christ-mas\' if it\'s just mucking about with loads of ritual and waffle!
I never call it going to \'Mass\'. I call it going to a Service, Communion, Worship, etc.

John Betjeman is my favourite poet. This poem, the Betjeman version, was read at our Church Carol Service and the lady that read it did it in a wonderful way.

Amen.

orchidee said:

Has the original got 8 lines per stanza? The tune is called \'Fragrance\' I think, with the title \'Whence is that goodly fragrance flowing?\' This could be a hymn-poem, fragrant, eloquent, warm, delightful, etc! :)
