As Laura acceptingly noticed, I lately failed at coloring between the lines.
I did not check the schedule Laura took time to put together and thot
we were now on Chap 14 and that Robin had excused himself as host. 
["Come back, Shane; ...Shane"] 

So, always able to post where I didn't even see any lines, ala our joyful
anarchic list, I'll hold back on Chap 14 and just bore you with more 
Misc. ...Or "More again" as my grandson sez in Elizabethan....

Against the Day...not just a Biblical allusion, nor Faulknerian as HE  alludes 
to the
Bible but I get another .50c thrift store book, W.H.D. Rouse on Greek mythology 
because
it is another area I am weak in and what do I read in Chap 1. "Beginnings"......

I read that the god Chaos [the hollow Void] gave forth Erebos [Dark Night] who 
together
had a child the Day...
And Eros or Love also came forth from Chaos, no one knows how and still lives, 
the most 

mightly of all divine powers.....
