<*checking etymology*> hmmm . . . "recant" . . . "recant" . . . 
doesn't that mean to sing the whole thing over again?

You know that I write slowly. This is chiefly because I am never satisfied
until I have said as much as possible in a few words, and writing briefly
takes far more time than writing at length.
