It would make sense to collect odd sentences/phrases from the Texts -
I had noted several of the Hamlet quotes in _A_ as being awkward or
surprising, but hadn't thought to systematically investigate them
(not that I would have come up with e.g. the scallion quote ref).
If there are individual Texts besides _A_ with several such unexpected
configurations of words, we might have an easter egg hunt.
