Oh, well done! Much better than I'd hoped for when I made the phantom. Actually, what I'd been picturing was Father Jack from the BBC show "Father Ted".

Obli's allusions
His doggerel (which is so incompetent, it actually scans and rhymes perfectly) is a mixture of William McGonagall on the Tay Bridge and Lewis Carroll on the Hunting of the Snark. His Parthian shot, of course, alludes to A Tale of Two Cities. --John Cowan 16:00, 29 Sep 2004
