The lever had a hole at the end that married with a groove at the rear of the head when tightened, the kind of alignment that suggested a padlock could be slotted through. A punishment, he thought then, a tool to render the wearer blind, helpless. He could picture it then: a village square on some significant day – Equinoctial bollocks, Max had said – and a poor unfortunate blind in the centre of a jeering mob.”
