I am at a loss - the mouse on my computer may be clicking prematurely? - for some unknown reason, when I try to "save as draft" the computer is sending the emails. Sorry for the multiple posts.

But the KJV and of course the works of Shakespeare are great examples of
"speaking forsoothly". Unless you want to go to Chaucer, in which case
very few people will understand what you're saying, Middle English being
pronounced somewhat differently, not to mention the spelling. Come to
think of it, that's a problem I seem to encounter in modern English. Hmm.
