Having shown, the guide then tells – makes sense of what’s been pointed out. And it’s often the case that the greatest delight – for both parties – comes from the “miniatures.” They’re often diamonds of meaning – small details that tell a big story. In this instance, Fiona connects a jelly sweet on a paving stone with a 1603 execution and the condemned man’s desperate attempt to save his life.
