Esimerkit

  • And of those base-minded jesters or buffons, some have beene seene, that even at the point of death would never leave their jesting and scoffing. He whom the heads-man threw off from the Gallowes cried out, ‘Row the Gally,’ which was his ordinarie by-word.
  • And made him Headsman, for we said, / "Who's next to be decapited / Cannot cut off another's head / Until he's cut his own off"
