The day after Mardi Gras I always feel a little like comedian Tracy Ullman at the end of her show when she would come out in her bathrobe and tell everybody to “go home”

In fact here it is free from Dartmouth

Comus by John Milton was written in 1634 it’ll give you so much insight into a lot of the visuals we see during the ball and also legends of carnival in general

I’m not exactly sure but in the story of comus he turns regular people into beasts so I’m wondering if it’s just a representation of man before he’s turned. As for the Egyptian it certainly looks like a cowl of some kind but it could just be a hat of the day

Yep! He was bringing in a barge

He’s in the shipping business

Goodnight #rexcomus thanks for the laughs!! Til next year! If ever I cease to love!

No Errol please go on why did you think was funny in d’etat #rexcomus

There’s been a conspiracy theory that John Wilkes booth was a king of comus because there’s a blood pact that the king has to kill a high profile person in order to be king #rexcomus

She already did!! #rexcomus

Ends at 11:30
