The poor peasants stuck to porridge, beans, turnips and black bread . . . with not even a vulture for their Sunday dinner! Meanwhile King John of England was ordering that his hawks should be fed on chicken and pork! The Lord could hunt deer over a peasant's land - the same deer could destroy a peasant's crop of wheat - but the peasant wasn't allowed to touch it. Killing a deer was as serious as killing a man. And the punishment was usually the same - execution.

Talking about the Middle Ages, it was a great time for witch hunting. Have you read the gruesomely funny "Washington Witch" play, and performed it with your friends? Go to PITIFUL PLAYS.
