    It'll do for me!
    And it was not published until 1886.

      That's the one! I did say fairly late. It's based on Jacob's Ladder.

      Coleslaw: Jacob -

      Bruckner Locus Iste
      Gordon Jacob Fun Fare
      Penderecki The Dream of Jacob

      You've Kopped it, ferney!

        OK - not entirely satisfied with this, but anyway -

        A Blissful Mazurka; Sugared rival Ballplay; Schubert in reflective mode. Anybody know the answer?

              ... pondering a Reflective Schubert I came across this.

              "We study the mirror symmetry for smooth complete intersection Calabi-Yau 3-folds in minuscule Schubert varieties using their degenerations to Hibi toric varieties. Listing all these Calabi-Yau 3-folds up to deformation equivalences, we find a new example of smooth Calabi-Yau 3-folds of Picard number one, which is a complete intersection in a locally factorial Schubert variety of the Cayley plane. We calculate topological invariants and BPS numbers of this Calabi-Yau 3-fold and conjecture that it has a non-trivial Fourier-Mukai partner."

              Did we know the extent of Rumpole's workings?

                        Err ... no. (Surely a mistranslation of "Knecht Rupert" here?)

                            I had a a non-trivial Fourier-Mukai partner once.

                            Not sure I'd recommend it...
