[Sca-cooks] How do you answer such a question

Countess Alys said:

<<< Depending on the Crown (hi, Gunthar!), I might have said  
something like:
   The glow of Your magnificence blinds my eyes and the ardor with which
I admire You causes a fire in my veins.  I needed to absent myself from
Court and into the kitchen in order to quench the burning fever that
races through my very being.  I tremble before the flame of Your
presence.  I pray, release me, O Glorious King, to once again plunge my
feverish hands into the soothing waters of service to You and the  
kingdom.>>>

Oh my.

See this Florilegium file. I think the Court might need these.

I think stilts are period, too. But I don't have an article on them.
