Thank you so much Cairi, that was just beautiful. In Excelsis Deo is the same in English too... ahhh lovely.
And the pages from the Bookes of Houres.. and the other pics.. some most interesting ones. (the wood cut of the old man holding his hand before his face while 'wife'? feeds him with long spoon.... intriguing... and another one with a lady sitting (blue dress) with her skirts hauled well above her knees.. which are Akindle (or whatever.. wide anyway!) So much human action in those.)
And then there are the people with animal heads! Religious iconography is an odd thing sometimes! I wonder what historians hundreds of years from now will think of my Snoopy dog standing in the snow in front of a little twiggy tree with only one ornament...

And that last shot of the Green Man! (Predates Christianity by a loooooong way!)
