Does anyone think there may be a connection between Isaiah and William? Isaiah was "buried in an urn" and William was rescued from a "cradle of clay." I'm still trying to figure out what the "cradle of clay" would be referring to, if anyone has ideas....
For one, she could be referring the the soil he was laying on, which might well have a lot of clay. There's also a chance that she means a literal cradle made from clay, but I don't think that's terribly likely. What I think the the most likely interpretation is his body - Genesis describes Adam being formed from clay, and clay is often used as a metaphor for human flesh.

I totally agree. I'm taking way too much liberty with this, but I think of the cradle of clay like half the urn broken off from the rest facing upward in a cradle type shape. Or maybe just the urn in general. There's too much there to say that there's no possible connection between the characters. It would just be so Decemberists-y to throw in a twist that's not really explained publically.

or at all. Isaiah shows up as a ghost in "The Hazards of Love 3 (Revenge)". How could he be dead with his sisters, and yet alive (as William) chasing after The Rake to save Margaret. I agree it seems like there should be some link between the two, but I can't see how this is it.

Well it could be a few things.
