ineffable
By Diogenes ( articles ) | Dec 09, 2008
According to the official Vatican translation, in a message about the Christian heritage of European culture, Pope Benedict XVI encouraged reflection upon "the ancient roots in which abundant lymph has flowed over the course of the centuries."
Lymph?
