Thread Name: England's National Musical-Instrument?
Subject: RE: England's National Musical-Instrument?
In the interests of intelligibility I translated the above'verse' into Dutch and out again (Double Dutch)

Mineral water, Gebladerte-geklede wells, groen-Gras on the slopes, the valleys of limestone, Klei-betegelde arcades, the afbaarden of duidelijk-glas, the columns of vormen-Ijzer, Stained-glass ceilings, earth garden urns, wooden inlegsels, ground in a cross, the ways of the pebble, and, had between paces, fight the element of, abundance of tea.

Makes more sense and scans better
