Great pictures: Curious now – "RIAMA" could someone please explain the significance.

Addendum -
The story that is widely circulated is that the phrase was first spoken by the English evangelical preacher and martyr, John Bradford (circa 1510–1555). He is said to have uttered the variant of the expression - "There but for the grace of God, goes John Bradford", when seeing criminals being led to the scaffold.
Another, more modern expression – "there's them as done it; and, them as is gunna".
