answer:I’ll get the ball rolling with a few of my own: Edward I of England (1239–1307) was embroiled in a war against the Scots. The Scottish countess of Buchan took a stand against Edward in Berwick Castle; he retaliated by shutting her in a cage, which he then hung over the walls in order to humiliate her. The phrase “Hocus Pocus” comes from the latin “hoc est corpus meum” (This is my body), which medieval Catholic priests would recite over the communion chalice during mass. Because with his back turned to the congregation, a screen in between him and the congregation, and reciting things in a language they did not speak, the congregation had no idea what he was doing, and assumed he was casting a spell. You can grow a hybrid of a cucumber and a honeydew melon.
