    I am bad with faces, but August I bears a striking resemblance to Pr. Weedon’s blog photo. Anyone else see it?

    I think Augustus looks remarkably like Justin Timberlake. So does my Sophomore Confessions class.

    Johann der Beständige would be John the Steadfast.

    Okay, in service to impartiality, can we have a portrait gallery of the Swedish ruler most responsible for the success of the Reformation (c. 17th century)? Thank you, and may God bless ye merry gentlemen!
    The penitential ones, too, most certainly!
