I regret to say that unlike yourself I did not have the advantage of a public school education (which if I understand correctly is actually a private school-you see how easily one from a far land may become linguistically confused.)

Today I will close the shop early and get a tincture of stimulating herbs for myself from the apothecary down the road. Thus fortified against the unflinching stare of the Phung's head I will study the gaping and gulping of the head's maw, the clicking of its mandibles and hope that it choses to communicate with us again.
