Comment by posthumous:
Varicose, bellicose, unsaturated, infatuated,
metered, fettered, lettered, leaded,
feted, fetid, feeble, peopled,
where Lords and Puritans invented freedom together,
taken by ideology left and right,
walked by Shakespeare and Tyndale
who gave us not theater and religion, but our very language.
Oh, and Cats.


I'm hanging this in my fantasy gallery

Comment by tvsometime:
Was William still around? Poor Harold. I always remember this date due to a book by WC Sellar named "1066 and All That". In case you missed it: A comic satire upon textbook history squeezing in all the history you can remember from the Olden Days and dashing Queen Woadicea to the reigns of the Eggkings (Eggberd, Eggbreth and Eggforth, and their mysterious Eggdeath), from the dreadful story of Stephen and his aunt Matilda to the Magna Charter, from the six burglars of Calais to the disillusion of the monasteries and the life of Broody Mary, from William and Mary, when England was ruled by an orange, to the Boston Tea-Party and the annoying confusion between Napoleon and Nelson, to the Peace to end all Peace. Thanks for reminding me.

Though life did not take the course imagined....

Though circumstances as now were not forseen...

There is still joy and purpose deapie where we are...

Hope springs eternal.
