SOURCE OF QUOTATION

D. Stewart Habrough of the town of the self-same name waxed lyrical on finding a medieval chessman while excavating relics alongside a local churchyard gate. The keen amateur archaeologist described the find in the following words: “… a chessman, King / … / Such unearthed fragments of the past have still / the power to … disturb, excite, or chill” (Habrough, 2012).
