How sad that so little mediaeval glass has survived.<br /><br />PS I I'd heard of Melchizedek, but you'd expect that from me. :-)Perpetuahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01214396019726161983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-771539132515843977.post-21160735779121580302013-07-06T21:36:43.339+02:002013-07-06T21:36:43.339+02:00I'm glad to see you write this place up.
