Excerpt from My Lady's Garter Once upon a time, nearly six hundred years ago - about the year 1344 to be more explicit - His Gracious Majesty, King Edward III, guest of honor at the grand annual ball of the Larry L. Plantagenet Association, paused while dancing with the beautiful Countess of Salisbury, and, stooping, picked up from the floor - a lady's garter! It was a ribbon of dark blue, edged with yellow - a slender, shapely thing with buckle and pendant cunningly wrought of gold. The countess gasped, blushed, grabbed hysterically at her left knee, then giggled! Even beautiful women giggle! A smile ran around the ballroom; the smile became a titter. "Honi soit qui mal y pense!" His Majesty reproved sharply. Now one may translate that a dozen ways: "Evil to him who evil thinks," or "Shame be upon him who thinks ill of it."
