If music be the food of love, play on;
Give me excess of it, that, surfeiting,
The appetite may sicken and so die.

William Shakespeare, Twelfth Night

Yay, books!

Tati is in Phoenix today for work, and brought not only my Riverside Chaucer (which I'd lent her a while back), but also a book called "Painted Prayers", in which she had put post-it notes on a couple pages with good examples of 16th-century illumination ... including one that is a display of arms with supporters, helm, torse and mantling.

Definitely getting some good ideas for this project.
