Card combination

The Hanged Man and The Devil

One rope and one chain, and the tradition reads the whole pair through the difference. The Hanged Man is tied and calm, and the tradition insists the arrangement is his own; the Devil's figures are chained loosely enough to lift the chains off and do not. The pair is about whether a constraint was chosen.
