Ooops!  I thought I had pulled Bevington from the shelf, but instead I
had pulled Palmer's Arden edition of T&C.  Bevington does indeed go for
the sweet potato and cites Gordon Williams. (See Bevington's note on
5.2.57-8.) Palmer gives the anecdote regarding the Eigth Army's use of
passion-fruit.

Sorry for the confusion.

Yours, Bill Godshalk
