My little wading pool is going dry...

Judging by the number of topics you brought up after this sentence, I would say it's closer to overflowing than drying up!

Anyway, to my point. I came across a foot reference while listening to Prokofiev's stunning film score for Alexander Nevsky. There is a Latin phrase used as a refrain several times: Peregrinus expectavi pedes meos in cymbalis est. The translation (according to the liner notes) is as follows: "As a wanderer, I expected my feet to be shod in cymbals."

Does anyone recognize this phrase? Is it a quote from somewhere? I'm curious as to its precise meaning and derivation.
