folks do not smile in anticipation of anguish becoming their "sense of
purpose." Not unless you are a fundamentalist perhaps.


From my copy of the "Concise Dictionary of the English Language"
(available at project Gutenberg):

Angre ... affliction, sorrow, wrath, pain, inflammation ... by way of
the Icelandic angr.

Angren ... to annoy, injure, make angry ... by way of the Icelandic
angra.

Angwisch ... anguish

anguyssh ... angoise

anguise ... anguisse ... angustia, tightness from angere, to squeeze.

Amusingly enough, every one of these terms encountered in line are
directly following:

Angles ... the English, the people of 'Angul' a district of Holstein
.... Englis.

What a larf (or for the rest of the English speaking world, Hoot).
