"Full fathom five thy father lies; Of his bones are coral made; Those are pearls that were his eyes: Nothing of him that doth fade But doth suffer a sea-change Into something rich and strange."
Ariel sings this in The Tempest right before the sea witch steals her voice, setting the stage for the best "Sha la la la" ever sung by a lobster.
"Full fathom five thy father lies; Of his bones are coral made; Those are pearls that were his eyes: Nothing of him that doth fade But doth suffer a sea-change Into something rich and strange"
Ariel, The Tempest. Act i. Scene 2.
If that's not right, I'm going with this as my answer.
Mel, you've still got your bajillion points, but for the sake of confusion and since fake and real numbers don't add together well, I'm going to hold them out of the tally as we go - now that you're on the board with real numbers!

And that's where my memory cuts out. It's something like but suffereth a sea change or something, then blah blah blah.
It's Ariel's song in The Tempest. I love the part about the coral bones and pearls for eyes, it just sticks in your mind's eye. GREAT IMAGERY, Will!

I'm hoping every player gets a certificate of participation, so I wanted to have something to offer this week!
