Thanks everybody. I had got Cineraria, the shrub, but Googling didn't show it with the funeral connections. Just 101A to go! Thanks again.
How about weltering? Check the number of letters...

welter (`w�lt�) vb. (intr.)1. to roll about, writhe, or wallow.2. (esp. of the sea) to surge, heave, or toss.3. to lie drenched in a liquid, esp. blood. n. 4. a rolling motion, as of the sea.5. a confused mass; jumble.[C13: from Middle Low German, Middle Dutch weltern; related to Old High German walzan, welzen to roll]
Question Author
Yes, it's, "weltering". I've just Googled in some vowel variations and this comes up with the right definition.
Thanks again to all and, again, Happy New Year!
