Gravitas.

 De profundis clamavi ad te, Domine;
Domine, exaudi vocem meam. (No problem there.)

The header is same as that used by a reader in an email sent to your Tatler, in which he brought the item below to his attention. Unable to improve upon it, your Tatler chose to reuse it.

His Eminence Cardinal Dolan discussing the state of Christ’s Church with heavyweight New York Post columnist Cindy Adams.

“Religion is going down. St. Patrick’s used to be jammed every service. Spectacular. Now it’s not always full. Less crowded because once it was the center of New York tourism. I don’t know where this world is going.”

Those sorrowful words were uttered to Ms Adams as the Cardinal was engaged in the annual ritual seen below.

The blessing of the animals for the Radio City Music Hall Christmas Spectacular.

With thanks to GWR.
