    Thilke sollein season sadder plight doth aske,

    Quite excellente, Forsooth...!

    Agreed, Spenser is always a blast, a bit like a Monty Python character.

    Thanks for commenting, Zod.

    This is just a prologue to Colin's song about Queen Dido (which I posted yesterday).

    I wouldn't say Spenser is, but I can see how his characters could remind
    you of the /Holy Grail/.

    Strange indeed, even if it was a Nova BBS issue...
    Compare the Nova BBS page with the Google Groups page:

    https://news.novabbs.com/arts/thread.php?group=alt.arts.poetry.comments

    IOW: It's another Nova BS glitch.
    Or perhaps the problem is with Google Groups.

    The problem is that Nova BS does not interface well with Google Groups. This glitch is similar to the one I had mentioned last week, wherein a response to some posts made by you and/or your sock will not include the post being responded to in the
    headers.

    I'd you're talking about the David Dalton thread, no, you were wrong about that, Pendragon.

    HTH and HAND.
