BRAVO! This is some of the creative thinking I would love to see!

My dearest Love, Edouard de Bruyerecourt, is currently the 'inspiration' of
my senior student, a delightful Greco-Roman (BC) lady fighter. When she
wins coronet (and you can bet it will happen when I am least able to deal
with it) I have some illuminations from my time period that show Greeks and
Romans, in an amalgamated dress that is a little funny, but clearly what
the contemporary (to 1402 or 07 or whatever) perception was of the Greeks
and Romans! (and I think it will be fun!)

Poor Edouard. I haven't figured out how to get around wearing red... ;-)

plotting... always plotting...
