Ahhhh - But was it in the polite vernacular of the time. LH? I would agree entirely if we were talking Victorian England or whatever date you would care to mention in Biblebelt land but was it 3 or 4 thousand years ago? How do we know the author was not having a bit of a laugh?

Kat - never thought of the time differences. You are quite right. The club DID keep the 'naughty bits' away from the eyes of the children though whereas the parade did not! And you know - I never even though of the profits/prophets angle. But the two do seem interchangeable nowadays though don't they...;-)
