Fedora and the prison of laws in a satirical tale
Two ancient mariners recount Fedora where a ruler bans acts by penalty and a chain of jailings grows until the entire state is imprisoned. The tale ends with the line that Fedora cannot be found on the map and the rulers vanish into law. The crowd of prisoners expands to cover courts, cooks, judges, and legislators as they all are jailed for petty quotes and misstatements.
