The following proclamation was made on February 11,
2005 by the Prophet Gregorius (one of the many names by which this sage
is known to us). I shall be known by this name thence and for evermore.
-- La Sequencia
For Unto Us a Diva Is Born
Children of a Lesser God:
I call you from all the ends of the earth, the four corners of the flat globe to come to council that you might approve of the new name that I have bestowed upon one of our own.
I hereby bestow upon James, organist and herder of the choirlings of (some parish church in the Midwest of the United States of America), the Diva Name La Sequencia, as he doth improvise so cunningly upon the gospel acclamation, often calling our attention to the cantus firmus in the lower pedals while with his hands he doth piddle away in a key known only unto God and himself. He maketh a pleasing sound unto the Lord our God upon the zither and harp, though he be less gifted with the timbrel. Give glory unto the One who has given us La Sequencia, for his power is everlasting and his mercy is sure. In this life he hath not beset us with masters whipping our undilligent sides, nor hath he had a seal set upon our straying loins.
Peace and all good things,
The Prophet Gregorius
