the storm howls about bucketing trees, snatching hats trying doors and panes — my collie stays close that sky-dog quails her brave heart

For music this morning, here’s vocal trio Voice – with their album Hildegard Portraits (Youtube) – music marking the tenth anniversary of the canonisation of the 12th-century spiritual leader, theologian, mystic, scientist and composer, St. Hildegard of Bingen (1098-1179). (Wondering why it took so long for the church to get around to granting her sainthood? The answer is here)
Happy she’s snug inside. St. Hildegard, what a patient saint. Singing is ethereal and probably reaches Hildy’s ears.
