After collecting six non-play words and had no idea what the concept might be based on today’s theme wire, I needed a tip to get me started-but even with it I made very slow progress.
It was only when I said that the words “Hark Herald Angels Sing” for myself that I finally realized what this particular search was about.
Adding to the list of wise tip, today’s efforts sat at the top of the board like a glory. Seraph was a new word for me, and fortunately it was my last – and one I tapped out without knowing its location in the angel hierarchy.
