Again, some definitions were contributed by more than one person, so I have amalgamated them:
a. (n.) A functionary of lower rank than a chamberlain, but discharging some of his duties. Attendant at the king’s bedchamber; responsible for domestic security, organizing ceremonies (including religious ones), processionals and local travel. Called also sogennant-at-arms; an attendant of the serjeant-at-arms.
b. [Penn. Dutch] ironic
c. Characterized by a gloomy, oppressive atmosphere.
d. having the characteristics of a sponge
e. mosslike
f. of solo quality or effect, yet produced by an ensemble
g. of, relating to, or arising from one's mental or spiritual being, visceral, intuitive
h. so called
i. stagnant [mainly Scottish]
j. unflappable, stoic
Definitions supplied by:
Annastrophic, Bingley, consuelo, dxb, faldage, fiberbabe, jheem, musick, sjmaxq, tsuwm, Whitman O’Neill, wordwind
You have a sennight to place your bets.

Well, lets C. It would certainly B ironic. And, A! I love the spelling of serjeant. It's so boring, but what the H!

This is an odd hogwash - I have no idea what my score is likely to be. It has left me Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered.

Just for fun (and to play the odds) I'll vote for "G" because these four *synonyms seem to cover almost everything.  mental - spiritual - visceral - intuitive

Well, I was gonna wait till Max voted before posting mine, but that ploy was to no avail. Although I'm fairly certain the right answer is H, I'm going to have to agree with Max, and vote for the clever definition. To B or not to B. I'll B.
