Ok, let's see. Justthefax beat Upintheairjrbird with sanbenito, which is surprising since you two have so much in common. (Baritones and sanbenito both have nine letters and can follow obeisant.)
Please continue from SANBENITO. There are at least five words that can follow.
There are at least five words that can follow ABSTENTION.
There is at least one word that can follow BELGRADE.
(yay! - i couldnt think of a word at all there)
