Tis but a scratch! Oh! Come and see the violence inherent in the system! Right. Right. You don't vote for kings. Who's that, then? Now look here, my good man... Bring out your dead!

A duck! I didn't know we had a king. I thought we were an autonomous collective. Oh! Come and see the violence inherent in the system! He was not afraid to die, O brave Sir Robin Apples! Hah! The swallow may fly south with the sun or the house martin or the plover may seek warmer climes in winter, yet these are not strangers to our land?
Wait a minute! Supposing two swallows carried it together? I dunno. Must be a king. Right! Arthur, King of the Britons, your Knights of the Round Table shall have a task to make them an example in these dark times. The Black Knight always triumphs! Have at you! Come on, then. Listen. Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony. Hey, this one is for your mother! There you go. It is I, Arthur, son of Uther Pendragon, from the castle of Camelot. King of the Britons, defeater of the Saxons, Sovereign of all England!
Man! Who are you who are so wise in the ways of science? Will you ask your master if he wants to join my court at Camelot?! So? We have ridden since the snows of winter covered this land, through the kingdom of Mercia, through... Well I got better. Is there someone else up there we could talk to? Then who is your lord? No. What are you doing in England?
