(Sorry, Adrian...)<br /><br />I'm more curious about 'incant' being used as a verb. But maybe that's what made it work, who knows.

The practice of good writers, and of good speakers, gives, however, no support to the objections. And, after all, if your writing is to be a well-linked whole, there must be some way or other of carrying on the thought from one sentance to the next.
