		Yet so clear is the witness of Paul to this fact of Christ's Divinity, that the Rationalists and rationalistic Lutherans of Germany have strived to get away from the forcefulness of the witness of the Apostle by rejecting his form of Christianity as not conformable to the Christianity of Jesus.
		The witness of St. Ignatius of Antioch (A. 110-117, according to Harnack) is almost that of the apologetic age, in whose spirit he seems to have written to the Ephesians.
		The witness of tradition to the fact of the union of the two natures in the one Person of Jesus is clear not only from the symbols or creeds in use before the condemnation of Nestorius, but also from the words of the ante-Nicaean Fathers.

		All of Sayers' mystery novels are entertaining, skillfully plotted stories, and as the BBC's version of Clouds of Witness is very faithful to the original novel, it can't fail to be entertaining as well.
		Clouds of Witness is a mystery with an intricate plot, requiring that viewers pay attention, and rewarding the attentive viewer with the pleasure of seeing the puzzle take shape and then seeing how all the pieces fit into place.
		I enjoyed Clouds of Witness quite a bit; Dorothy Sayers is one of my favorite mystery authors, and it's nice to see that her novels translate very well to the screen.

		For example, Mary Wimsey's utterly guilty of perjury and obstruction of justice: she lied to investigators and on the witness stand to protect her boyfriend, who she suspected of having killed her fiance.
		I don't doubt that a lower-class person who did a similar thing would have been treated quite differently from Mary, who not only gets off scott-free, her behavior is lauded before the House of Lords.
		As another example, during the trial, the appearance of a particularly elusive witness is attributed to "Parker's diligence." While Parker is a diligent detective, one can't help but suspect that he might not have been quite so diligent if the accused had not been a) a Duke, and b) the brother of his friend.

		In some respects Dorothy Sayers is a problematic author, and early in her career she struggled with what can only be called a tendency toward incessant clutter: a wordy style, an often awkwardly expressed fascination with the mechanics of timetables, and constant reference to erudite academia that frequently verged on the downright obscure.
		But with CLOUDS OF WITNESS she found a very neat balance--and the result is not only the first clear sounding of Sayers' literary voice, it is also simply the best of her early works.
		In this particular story, death unexpectedly arrives in the very bosom of the Wimsey family: the Duke has taken a rural manor for the hunting season, and when his sister's fiance is found shot to death in the small hours of the morning he is himself accused.

		Nor is it proper for him to dine with the prosecution's key witness, and coach her in how to deal with the cross-examination she will get once she turns hostile.
		So, yes, Clouds of Witness and The Nine Tailors are the only Wimsey books in which the weather plays an important role (with an Honorable Mention for Have His Carcase).
		This is even more true in The Nine Tailors than in Clouds of Witness, as the guilt and anger and desperation in Fenchurch St. Paul seem to get sucked straight up into the clouds.

		I first read CLOUDS OF WITNESS in the 1960s and in the 1970s I saw Ian Carmichael play Lord Peter Wimsey -- he did it well but I felt he was too cheerful and hail-fellow-well-met for the role.
		Shrewd phrases by Dorothy Sayers abound, for example, the Duchess is characterised as someone 'whose misfortune it was to become disagreeable when she was unhappy.'.
		My conclusion is that Clouds of Witness by Dorothy Sayers is still well worth reading or rereading today.

	Clouds of Witness Summary Study Guide
		With the younger son of a duke as the detective hero, Clouds of Witness, like the other Wimsey novels, creates a world of immemorial aristocratic values that might seem at first impervious to social concerns.
		Indeed Sayers has often been called a snob and accused of anti-Semitism and of patronizing the lower classes, and it must be conceded that she does to some extent share these values with the British reading public of the 1920s.
