Claim but do not reduce ontological subset a)

to indicators of some such other luck. Convince yourself

that rain enters below the puddles. Dear Sir, I am

seeking

the residence of my patron saint – do you know where

a greater shelter. Let us have patience with gratitude,

aubergine beside itself (with rosemary), hermeneutics,

exegetics,

into floodlit dioceses. Beware the comparable mastication

of oysters and grapes. Another name for faith is pure

already.
