I've never heard of pansied slops. I wonder where the name came
from. Aha--another online reference says it came from Winter and
Savoy's book, which is almost completely untrustworthy. I would
treat this term with skepticism until a 16th-century reference can be
found--does anyone have one?
Just curious,

Evidently he's looking for a French term, though if there's an
obvious
English one I'll send him that as well.
