	Hung, drawn and quartered
		Hanged, drawn and quartered was the punishment for men who committed treason, i.e.
		The entrails and genitals are then removed (drawn), the head cut off and the torso hacked into four quarters.
		There's some debate over whether drawn refers to the dragging of the live victim to the butcher's block or the (with)drawing of the entrails.

	Hanged, drawn and quartered - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		To be hanged, drawn and quartered was the penalty once ordained in England for treason.
		Typically, the resulting five parts (i.e., the four quarters of the body and the head) were parboiled to prevent them rotting too quickly, then gibbetted (put on public display) in different parts of the city or town to deter would-be traitors.
		Additionally, the corpses of Oliver Cromwell, John Bradshaw and Henry Ireton were disinterred and hanged, drawn and quartered in posthumous executions for their involvement in the regicide.

	Brewer, E. Cobham. Dictionary of Phrase & Fable. Drawn.
		The evidence seems to be that traitors were drawn to the place of execution, then hanged, then “drawn” or disembowelled, and then quartered.
		Thus the sentence on Sir William Wallace was that he should be drawn (detrahatur) from the Palace of Westminster to the Tower, etc., then hanged (suspendatur), then disembowelled or drawn (devaletur), then beheaded and quartered (decolletur et decapitetur).
		If by “drawn” is meant conveyed to the place of execution, the phrase should be “Drawn, hanged, and quartered;” but if the word is used as a synonym of disembowelled, the phrase should be Hanged, drawn, and quartered.”

	Strategy / Omaha Hi-Lo - Drawn and Quartered
		Back in less enlightened days, being drawn and quartered meant that somebody in a fl hood (working on behalf of law enforcement) did some rather nasty things to the body of the person who was being punished in this particular manner.
		By the end of this rather gruesome form of execution, the body of the victim was cut into four pieces and the bits sent to the four corners of the kingdom as a reminder of what happens to those who treat the laws of the land mere suggestions.
		Being quartered in Omaha High-Low obviously is not as painful as the Dark Age's version, but does mean that you may only wind up with 25% of pot.

		Drawn and Quartered is one of those bands that I have been patiently been waiting for an actual EP from.
		The name Drawn And Quartered, taken from “Hung, drawn and quartered”, which is a gruesome form of torture and eventually, death by execution.

	Lollipop Magazine's Issue 67 MP3 Compilation CD: Drawn And Quartered
		Although lineup shuffles would continue to dog the band, Drawn And Quartered played their third show opening for Napalm Death and At The Gates, in 1996, eliciting a great response from a mostly unfamiliar audience.
		That demo was especially well-received by the underground, and Drawn And Quartered soon became a formidable live act, opening for some of metal’s brightest luminaries: Morbid Angel, Obituary, Nile, Deicide, Immolation, Incantation, Monstrosity, Nevermore, Impaled, and Cephalic Carnage, among many others.
		Simply, Drawn And Quartered are the real, evil deal, and EVIL is the sound of Return of the Black Death.

	The Death of William Wallace (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		He was hung at the gallows for a short time and then taken down, allowed to recuperate for a few short minutes and was drawn while the blood-thirsty crowd watched.
		To be drawn is to have one's intestines ripped from the body and burned, a hideously painful act that extends the torture because the victims do not die immediately.
		Afterwards, William Wallace was quartered, a dispicable act of cruelty which consists of having all one's limbs and head cut off.

	In Search of Shakespeare . Execution - Elizabethan style \| PBS
		Hanged, drawn and quartered engravingExecution was a popular spectator sport in Elizabethan England, and as such, became an effective tool of the police state in maintaining loyalty and obedience to the crown.
		Petty criminals could be hanged for a variety of offences, nobles and even royalty beheaded, but if the state really wanted to make an example of the victim - usually on the grounds of supposed treachery - their chosen method of execution was as barbaric as anything yet seen.
		Victims would first be dragged from their prison to the place of execution on a wooden hurdle pulled by horses, suffering the contempt and abuse of the crowd as they went.

	Art in America: Drawn & Quartered. . - Reviews of books: poets and painters - book review
		An excellent example of a recently published book made by a painter and a poet is Drawn & Quartered, a volume that reproduces 54 drawings by Archie Rand, each of which is accompanied by a quatrain by poet Robert Creeley.
		Rand fields a wonderful cast of characters and architectural backdrops, all drawn with an unmatched wit, vigor and sense of art history.
		Indeed, this is as much a meeting of two writers as it is a posthumous encounter between a poet and a painter: Basquiat's use of language was highly distinctive and nuanced, not just in graphic terms but also at the level of structure and sound.

		Drawn and Quartered’s Extermination Revelry is like a blast of fresh air in the over-crowded, over-brutal death metal genre.

		Drawn and Quartered is a nice blend between the other two bands, though.

		Drawn And Quartered revel in being genuine to the old school death metal sound.
		Well, I think of music as a snapshot and it seems as thought D&Q are trying to paint themselves into a portrait that has long been moldy.
		But alas, Drawn And Quartered do no such thing and therefore their album sounds uninspired and rather boring.

		James Gleeson, Peter Travis, William Yang, Vivienne Binns, Alan Oldfield and Peter Kingston are among the major Australian artists represented, in each instance by works that would cut the mustard in a formal museum setting - which, let's be devastatingly frank, the irritating, eccentric yet amazingly vital Tin Sheds venue ain't.
		Conceived as a cuckoo clock whose face has the parrot profile of one of Sydney's most opinionated radio personalities, the work is serenaded by X-rated audio out-takes allegedly sourced from the broadcaster's mixing desk.

		Never mind that -- except for a few of the slicker submissions that are rendered as 3-D models -- most of the designs, done as pen-and-ink illustrations, pointedly ignore what a coin is, essentially: a work of public sculpture executed in extreme bas-relief, albeit at miniature scale.
		If it wins, the California quarter -- assuming the 25 busy and confused designs already released for other states are any indication -- could be the pick of the litter.

	IGN: The Drawn and Quartered EP Review
		Fair to Midland is one of the rare bands that have been able to take what it likes about rock and roll, add in subtle influences from the best of what was out there, and blend it all into a new and unique style.
		On The Drawn and Quartered EP, Fair to Midland has given the public a tantalizing taste of what only a few loyal fans in Texas have apparently known about since 1998.
		The Drawn and Quartered EP would be rated higher, but two demo tracks and two live singles really are not enough to warrant a higher score.
