Yes, short for Samuel. The Adagio from one of his String Quartets was the source of the Serenade for Strings. "Stringendo" is certainly an appropriate word for it!

And you left me the followup to BARREL, thank you!

...I couldn't; I don't know Bell-ringers' notation. (See Dorothy Sayers' The Nine Tailors.)

Now where were we...TENORS, I think it was.

A tutor who tooted a flute
Tried to tutor to Tudors to toot.
Said the two to the tutor,
"Is it harder to toot, or
To tutor two Tudors to toot?"

...after which they'd be TOOTERs indeed (as well as in word...)

My! Aren't we being creative today. Reminds me of the

Very fine limerick. You are to be commended on your
rhyming.
