No way, the establishment of the time avoided such results and Guise and his sidekick, Mrs Smith used the reluctance of the girls concerned to give evidence and basically pleaded guilty to lesser charges.

Guise had done similar to many, many other young women in his charge and no-one said a peep about it.

The teachers must have known what was going on and they remained silent too. Always been the same - hasn't it!

Sad people, the lot of them and no shame to the girls, rather they were let down by all those who should have protected them.

What is the meaning of My wife's a hobby horse?

It's a term employed in Shakespeare (specifically in the Winter's Tale) indicating that the speaker's wife is unfaithful. Calling her a hobby-horse is saying that she's a lustful individual or a prostitute. According to Gordon Williams' "A Dictionary of Sexual Language in Shakespearean and Stuart Literature" it comes from a rather explicit metaphor about "riding" (presumably because the hobby horse can be ridden easily and often with little effort required on the part of the person trying to ride it) combined with, according to Williams, the practices of the morris (a tribe of Galway, Ireland), who would engage in "licentious" behavior under the guise of "May-gaming." This activity would, presumably, involve the use of hobby horses somehow. In the play, Leontes is asserting that his wife, Hermione, has been unfaithful with his best friend, Polixenes.


Who is demophoon?

Demophoon (more commonly translated as Demophon, but not to be confused with Demophon, King of Athens and son of Theseus) was the son of King Celeus and Queen Metanira. King Celeus offered hospitality to the goddess Demeter while she was in the guise of an old woman named Doso and searched for her daughter Persephone. King Celeus asked Demeter to nurse his sons, Demophoon and Triptolemus. In return for his generosity, Demeter offered to turn Demophoon into a god. While she was doing so by placing him in a fire to burn away his mortal soul, Queen Metanira happened upon them and screamed at seeing her child on fire. Demeter was angered that she was interrupted and the Queen Metanira did not understand the ritual. Instead of making Demophoon a god, Demeter taught Triptolemus agriculture and helped him to spread the knowledge across Greece.
