captain K.P hob and delloso de la rue as lamia and the soldier by john william waterhouse.
if hob has dreamt of rue, I think the dreams may look something like this; haunted by peonies. another beautiful painting by waterhouse this time that I felt the need to fit these two into. I cannot wait for episode 6.

Hair. (French Folks Traditions) part 2 : love magic.
Detachable from the body, they retain its vital force. Thus, in the 17th century according to Thiers, to "make themselves loved by their husband", women took their cut hair, offered it three times in a row to the church altar with a burning candle, and then carry them on their heads.
It is common for seamstresses to place one of their hair in the hem of the wedding dress they are making, to quickly find a husband. (Brittany.)
Giving your loved one a lock of hair is not necessarily a good idea. In Picardy, it is said that the power of the bond between the two lovers would be such that one and the other would never be able to separate again, even to carry out their daily affairs.
Tumblr media
To make yourself loved by the man you want to have as your husband, you have to, in Paris, get 3 hairs of your loved one, braid them with 3 of your own, make a little crown that you wear bare on our chest by means of a fairly long cord passed around the neck. Once on the eve of our wedding, you will have to lock this talisman in a medallion and wear it as long as you want to be loved. (A bit the same idea as in the Grand Albert, where it involves making a tied bouquet with 5 hairs of your loved one and 3 of ours.)
For a husband or wife to be faithful, one must take a lock of their hair, burn it and spread the ashes on the wood of their bed after rubbing it with honey. Repeat the operation as necessary.
