    escape
    escape Etymology: from the prefix ex-, 'out of' and cappa, 'cape'. The cape was an ordinary article of clothing. When a person was attacked and the cape grasped, he would squirm out of it, leaving the attacker holding the cape. Breaking loose and fleeing was an 'escape'; and so leaving 'out of the cape' or an ex cappa.
