Dear Milum: I'm glad you are challenging doc_comfort, and not me. I re-read the Ancient Mariner a couple months ago, and the only sex I can remember was the wedding to which the guests were going.
Incidentally, I did not know until recently that good old wordsworth abandoned a daughter born without benefit of clergy.. Not sure of details, but it made him a bastard in my book. I like his poetry just the same.
"without benefit of clergy" a euphemism of sorts, but hardly a compliment
