There's an angel that lies at the bottom of the well

1. rose_lemberg sent me a CD of Frank London's A Night in the Old Marketplace and a piece of sea-blue Roman glass from Caesarea. You understand why this is such a marvelous pair of gifts, but I may have to write something to explain it anyway.

2. This is a terrific poem.

3. With any luck, there will still be tickets tonight for the restored print of The African Queen (1951) at the Brattle Theatre.

So far, some week!

Only a very short segment of the beach was open, but this is great - last time I visited, all of it was closed.

It's very beautiful, even if it is polluted.

Question: would you be able to point me in the direction of lyrics to A Night in the Old Marketplace? There was no CD booklet, so I'm transcribing most of the songs I like, but it wouldn't hurt to be able to check them.

Sorry, no - but there's always the play (I. L. Perez's Night at the Old Marketplace).
