Scintillating...

Oh, how I used to hate that word. I mean how the hell does one who can't pronounce words pronounce it?

Thought I'd give you a little rhyme I think I might have had to know about in GCSE English Literature - where I had no idea what the word was!

Scintillate, scintillate, globule vivific,
Fain would I fathom thy nature specific;
Loftily poised in ether capacious,
Strongly resembling a gem carbonaceous.

Can you make it makes sense? Without cheating and Googling, dammit!
