Hi Peter,

Thanks! I wasn't trying to capture the historic Richard III's English but that of Shakespeare's Richard, a nasty business he, but not so much so historically, not as much as the Tudor propaganda made him out to be. My aim for this exercise was to match a more historically plausible Richard, in terms of the facts presented, with the seething evil displayed in the Bard's smear campaign.

This isn't middle English and like everyone else's exercise on this tread it's really "faux Shakespeare." And fun to boot!

Don
