It exerts no tax on my memory, to recollect on a time when I, a snip of a youth at twenty, wearing a star studded mask, glinting with the sparkle of steel, was dressed as a Knight Errant for an evening costumed ball. Thinking to follow a delusory dream, I decided to wear a flowing, burgundy Crusader’s cloak, to impress my latest lady Love.
