William Shakespeare Quotes

Like Elizabeth, All Her Subjects Were Fond Of The Savage Pastime Of Bear And Bull Baiting. It Cannot Be Denied That This People Had A Taste For Blood, Took Delight In Brutal Encounters, And Drew The Sword And Swung The Cudgel With Great Promptitude; Nor Were They Fastidious In The Matter Of Public Executions. Kiechel Says That When The Criminal Was Driven In The Cart Under The Gallows, And Left Hanging By The Neck As The Cart Moved From Under Him, His Friends And Acquaintances Pulled At His Legs In Order That He Might Be Strangled The Sooner.
