      I know! Oh you're getting close with that first word!

      And what are you doing instead?
      "...the isle is full of noises,
      Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
      Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
      Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

          I know the feeling, Northo!

          Let's recap:

          M.... rapidly e.g. quickly... linked with your alternative to the Olympics...

          a wanderer, apparently roaming?

          with three versions of an Anglo-German sounding dance.... the name of this dance means 'German'

          Tell me when you want more!

              Yes! You're looking for the Anglo spelling though...

                I think I should assist further - sorry this has proved so thorny!



                M.... rapidly - the capital is key: Quickly. And Julie Walters...

                a wanderer, apparently Is she roaming? Also Shakespearean...

                with three versions of an Anglo-German sounding dance.... You're after an Alman which someone wrote in 3 versions (I think)

                              No perhaps, mistress. 'Tis she.

                              Quilter and Finzi had something to say about the remaining one...

                                I was thinking of " .. I am that merry wanderer of the night.
                                I jest to Oberon and make him smile"
