|Value 10 - 12 = "Oh, certainly!" says the Delightful Reverend. "I can think of nothing better."
|Value 13 = "A fellow woman of the cloth. But I suppose I should be glad you have found me the superior," the Reverend says, giving Jenny a sad wave, who surprise, returns it.
|Value 14, 15 = "Oh, certainly!" says the Delightful Reverend. "I can think of nothing better. Too many voices produces a discord. Trust me, I have considerable experience on this matter."
|Value 16, 17 = "Well, I suppose I shall have to go along with it," the Reverend sniffs. "Lest you get any ideas about throwing other founding members off their rightful positions elsewhere!" The Reverend shakes her head in despair at the perfidies of the Board.
|Value 18 = The Delightful Reverend looks pained. "A fellow member of the cloth... but then I think it might be for the best."
|Value 19 = The Delightful Reverend waves a hand airily. "Yes, yes. Goodbye very sad and all that. Now what's the next order of business?"
|Value 20 = The Delightful Reverend sighs. "A shame. But he is rather...mercenary?" Her shoulders slump, despondent at the state of the world.
|Value 21, 22 = "Oh that's a shame. I was doing rather well at convincing her to come to Burrow next Sunday. But if you're certain!"
|Value 23, 24, 28, 29 = The Delightful Reverend clasps her hands. "Such a nice young man. But I suppose we cannot always afford to be nice when it comes to running an organisation properly."
|Value 26, 30, 35 = "A shame it has not worked out. But hers is not a moderate temperament. And we must all sing from the same hymn-sheet!"
|Value 27 = "I think for the Yes-Man it has to be a no." The Reverend's eyes are very bright when she's being ruthless.
|Value 31, 37 = "It's a little bit of a shame," says the Delightful Reverend. "But we have somewhat different notions of the Church."
|Value 33 = The Delightful Reverend gulps. "Well, on your head be it. But I shan't be best pleased if Burrow's fallen into a giant smoking crater when next I visit."
|Value 100, 105 = "Well... I suppose I can see how the one at Burrow was chosen," she says, with a laugh that is not quite complimentary.
|Value 115 = "Good heavens!" exclaims the Delightful Reverend. "Who knew that a construction could be so, ah, blasphemous?"
|Value 120 = […] I cannot help wondering whether […] there is a purpose in […] shops where there are no people? Or are they more in the nature of ritual shops? Where no one buys anything, but the concept of marketing is carried forward?"

But she votes yes […]
|Value 130 = "Hm," says the Delightful Reverend. "One cannot miss the point of it, I suppose?"
|Value 140 = "It looks like a bit of nothing to me," says the Delightful Reverend. "But I suppose that is the purpose."
|Value 150 = "Charming," says the Delightful Reverend.
|Value 160 = "It's no charming little Alpine chalet," the Reverend notes. "But it'll do."
|Value 300 - 320, 340 = "Oh, certainly!" says the Delightful Reverend. "I can think of nothing better."
|Value 520 = "It does seem a little daring," admits the Delightful Reverend. "The stories we hear in Burrow, from people who have been out that way... but I am sure it will go well."
|Value 521 = "He has been this way before," the Reverend says. "And besides. Better he goes first than us. Joking of course!" She says, reaching across the table to clasp his hand. "Ho ho!" There is no response from behind Feducci's bandages.
|Value 522 = "Oh, yes. Let's clean up the bombs. It will delight the Burrow Ramblers' Association no end."
|Value 523 = The Reverend has put on one of the more daring scarves and is polishing off her second glass of wine. "What? Oh, that. Yes, well whatever she says." Across the table, Virginia gives you a very self-satisfied smile.
|Value 525 = "Well if his Grace thinks it best, I shall not contradict him," the Delightful Reverend says primly. The subsequent coughing fit from the Bishop of Southwark requires several people slapping his back and full carafe of water to put right.
|Value 526 = "Well, he does know what he's talking about. And there is something funny about taking the ''conventional'' route to Hell."
|Value 527 = The Delightful Reverend nods. "He knows his business I'm sure. And he's such a nice young man besides." The Wandering Gondolier beams, delighted to be praised.
|Value 528 = "It shall be our Noah's arc. Except we shall correct his error and include all of the dinosaurs and other wonderful beasts that he turned up his holy nose at."
|Value 529 = "The Viscountess is a lady of sense and means. I see no reason to decline her generous offer!" The Viscountess begins to purr, smugly.
|Value 700 = The Delightful Reverend inclines her head. "He seems the right man for the job." She smiles happily. "I believe people should do what makes them happy. And he seems like a man who very much would enjoy ordering people about in a big castle."
|Value 710 = The Delightful Reverend bangs the table. "Yes! I can think of no one better suited to the position." She ignores the alarmed looks from around the table.
|Value 720 = The Delightful Reverend frowns before at last nodding. "I just hope she's sincere about opening the place up to everybody. It's no use beginning something new without flinging the doors wide."
|Value 932 = [...] Our critics shall shake their heads. They shall pour foul scorn upon our ideas, but [...] they shall be laughing on the other side of their faces (no offence meant to our dear friend Furnace, of course) when we're through!" [...] Has she been at the sherry?
|Value 940 = "Well, we must all do our bit," says the Delightful Reverend, piously. "Even for the residents of Ealing Gardens who once chased me down the high street with big sticks for spouting 'alarming and heretical doctrine.' Humph!"
|Value 941 = "I am decidedly in favour," says the Delightful Reverend. It is plain she thinks better of Jenny than she did a few minutes ago.
|Value 1000 - 1020 = The Delightful Reverend nods. "A very unusual and exciting ally," she says. "We should include it in our plans immediately."
|Value 1100, 1110 = "Well, as long as you don't expect me to drive! Ho ho!" The Delightful Reverend beams.
|Value 1200 = "Oh, certainly!" says the Delightful Reverend. "It will foster a communal spirit."

|Value 10 - 12, 14 - 17, 20, 21, 23, 26 - 31, 35, 37 = "Oh, dear," says the Delightful Reverend. "I've always prided myself on being able to work with quite a varied parish council. Is the railway board so very different?"
|Value 13 = "No, she is a fellow woman of the cloth! Admittedly, she is currently without her wimple. But while the wimple may be theoretical the principle of solidarity is not!"
|Value 18, 19 = "No, no! The clerical insights are so valuable."
|Value 22 = "I don't think we should do that. I do not wish to have to try and get through a sermon while she's rolling bombs down the aisles at Burrow."
|Value 24 = "I don't think we should do that. I do not think I could survive the lecture that would follow."
|Value 33 = "I think things would go very badly if we tried to remove Him," the Delightful Reverend says nervously. A single rolling boom fills the silence. The Reverend jumps in her seat.
|Value 100, 105, 115 - 160, 181 - 184, 186, 187 = "The building communicates so much," says the Delightful Reverend. "Are we sure this is what we want to say about the GHR? Thinking about this from the perspective of outreach, that is."
|Value 520 = "I don't think that can be the right way," says the Delightful Reverend. "Not even with a great deal of prayer and preparation."
|Value 521 = "Well, no offence dear but you left Hell a long time ago? Who knows how it's changed in your absence! Perhaps you should have stayed." The Delightful Reverend chortles merrily to herself. Feducci's expression is unreadable behind his bandages.
|Value 522 = The Delightful Reverend frowns. "That sounds like it will take forever! And I'm not getting any younger." April contemplates a blueprint of a grenade made to resemble a flower arrangement contemplatively.
|Value 523 = The Delightful Reverend shrugs. "I've never paid much attention to people telling me I'm not allowed to do such and such or go to such and such a place." Virginia's expression is acid.
|Value 525 = The Reverend makes a face like somebody's stuffed lemons up her nostrils. "It's a bit... much, isn't it? Almost a bit ''too'' churchy." Opposite her, the Bishop of Southwark turns puce.
|Value 527 = "Well, no offence to the Gondolier who is a very nice young man indeed." The Wandering Gondolier beams at the Reverend's praise. "But we can't all fit on a gondola now can we?" The Gondolier's face falls.
|Value 528 = […] "I don't think we should be putting animals in danger now should we? I'd be thrown out of the board of several very respectable charities if they got wind of it!" […] "Assuming I've not already been thrown off for other reasons of course."
|Value 529 = The Delightful Reverend shakes her head. "This is the leopard and the scorpion all over again!" She does not elaborate further. The Viscountess emits a low but continuous growl.
|Value 700 = "He reminds me of a very disagreeable and ambitious vicar who was very rude to me at a community luncheon. No, he will not do."
|Value 710 = "Oh no. Not him." Has the Reverend perhaps had prior experiences that colour her view of September?
|Value 720 = "I find her position incoherent. There are some ambiguities that are too treacherous to safely navigate." Considering her line of work, this is some condemnation from the Delightful Reverend.
|Value 932 = "I don't hold with primordial horrors," the Reverend says ruminatively. "They tend to be very close-minded."
|Value 940 = "Oh, no," […] "That isn't a very effective use of the funds at our disposal. […] it sounds as though they might be misapplied." You have the strong sense that she understands the Widow's intent perfectly well, but finds it easier to pretend not to.
|Value 941 = "Will it be efficient?" the Reverend asks dubiously. "The intent, of course, is admirable..."
|Value 1000 - 1020 = "I do believe it means well," says the Delightful Reverend. "I have doubts only about the details of the plan. Perhaps there is a more mutually beneficial way to go about this?"
|Value 1100, 1110 = "I'd need to check my Bibles on the subject of war," the Reverend says cautiously. "It might take some time!"
|Value 1200 = "I have heard," says the Delightful Reverend, "that they are more than usually unorthodox. One might find it difficult to engage in a fruitful theological exchange."
