As the Not-Sheep Said to the Not-Cow

Very droll, all of this. I was particularly gratified by the St Boniface story. He worked with Willibrord, I believe, who even turned up in Baptist missionary stories for kids. Willibrord chopped down a sacred oak and tried to Christianise the hair-raising Frisians, the ancestors of one of my favourite authors, Jan-Willem van de Wetering...I see that Boniface was also martyred by the Frisians. Their martyrdom may have been related to eco-terrorism.
Anyway, I got all but 2 right, and I guessed about the not-cows...

PS In Scotland and Ulster, I think - but definitely in the Appalachians - a cow without horns is a 'muley cow'. We grew up thinking it had something to do with mules, but I'll bet it's Gaelic.

I must admit when I started this series I never imagined there'd be so much animal cruelty contained in a dictionary
