Good heavens!
Been wracking my brains about this - annoyed I didn't think of Eggs Benedict (even though it's wrong )"...the isle is full of noises,
Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

I think if you've been doing anything to your brains, you've been racking them. Unless you've been wrecking them??
Matthias: Look, I don't think it should be a sin, just for saying "Jehovah".
[Everyone gasps]
Jewish Official: You're only making it worse for yourself!
Matthias: Making it worse? How can it be worse? Jehovah! Jehovah! Jehovah!
Jewish Official: I'm warning you! If you say "Jehovah" one more time (gets hit with rock) RIGHT! Who did that? Come on, who did it?
Stoners: She did! She did! (suddenly speaking as men) He! He did! He!
Jewish Official: Was it you?
Stoner: Yes.
Jewish Official: Right...
Stoner: Well you did say "Jehovah. "
[Crowd throws rocks at the stoner]
Jewish Official: STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT RIGHT NOW! STOP IT! All right, no one is to stone - anyone - until I blow this whistle. Even... and I want to make this absolutely clear... even if they do say, "Jehovah. "
[Crowd stones the Jewish Official to death]

Originally posted by Resurrection Man View PostYes, a very nice bon bouche. There's a clue.
Is the food reference buried in one of Berlioz's operatic works?
Talking of moutons, I was thinking of lamb and shepherds singing farewell... Warm? Or trop saignant?"...the isle is full of noises,

Mme V, being younger than I am, is at work today; so, yes, I'm at home alone.

Think of what his countrymen also eat and that's not a chicken drumstick....there's two clues embedded there
And while Berlioz may well have eaten B he is most particular about it's use in his music.
