But regarding this part of the report: Were the acolytes maybe holding patinas? The only meaning I know of for patella is “knee cap.”
I should have fact-checked while editing the report, but knowing Latin, I assumed that "patella" would describe the plate held under the communicant's chin. I should have known better. I'll edit the report.
Meanwhile, I have learned a new word: Intinctorium. I’m not sure how I’ll work it into conversation, but I will try.
Now that takes us back over 60 years!
