Harlequin
is for Richard and Julie Rutherford-Moore
‘… many deadly battles have been fought, people slaughtered, churches robbed, souls destroyed, young women and virgins deflowered, respectable wives and widows dishonoured; towns, manors and buildings burned, and robberies, cruelties and ambushes committed on the highways. Justice has failed because of these things. The Christian faith has withered and commerce has perished and so many other wickednesses and horrid things have followed from these wars that they cannot be spoken, numbered or written down.’
JEAN II, KING OF FRANCE, 1360
Harlequin, probably derived from the old French
hellequin: a troop of the devil’s horsemen.
