... Colman was drawn before his hanging. The judge would have said "... that you be DRAWN to a place of execution and there HANGED; still being alive, you shall be cut down ... and QUARTERED". Paintings are hung, so already dead animals but people are hanged. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Smlark (talk • contribs) 17:22, 11 January 2019 (UTC)
