Howdy TF et al,

Do you refer to Burgess' fictional fragmentary essay "A Clockwork
Orange" embedded in "A Clockwork Orange" in which Man, as a creature
capable of moral choice, through good works ripens to sweetness until
he "...oozes juicily, at the last, upon the lips of God."  Or beyond
the Burgess I hear to another source?  I've often (well, more than
once...) wondered what his allusion might be.  Something in Shakespeare
maybe?
