The fifth of november

"Remember, Remember 
the Fifth of November,
The Gunpowder Treason and Plot,
I can think of no reason
Why the Gunpowder Treason
Should ever be forgot.
Guy Fawkes, Guy Fawkes, t'was his intent
To blow up the King and Parli'ment.
Three-score barrels of powder bellow"

-Traditional Guy Fawkes Rhyme

V is a popular character from a comic during the '80s which described an anarchist overthrow of a facist government. V's traditional mask, the Guy Fawkes mask, has become the face and persona of Anonymous, the Internet Hate Machine.

"Fawkes at midnight, and by torchlight there was found With long matches and devices, underground"

-John Rhodes
