Re: Feat of Sir Bohort
The honored Henry, learned Chancellor of the University, sits down
after a hard day of lecturing unthinking students and lets loose a
story:
(Hmmm. The Merry Rose.... nice place. Odd looking crowd tho.)
<takes a sip of wine and clears his throat>
As we are all reciting stories, I should like to share something with
you, sort of an odd piece which I learned from an appropriately odd
person.
This is the Feat of Sir Bohort, a knight from the days of Arthur. Bohort
was well known as the strongest and indeed the _largest_ of all the
knights of his day. But he was also a very simple and gentle soul, as
very large men sometimes are.
<Sir Bohort's great feat snipped to spare the gentle-hearted>

Is there anything to eat, around here?

To Henry from Ianthe,
Thank you for your (ahem) explosive tale. It's plain to see that
more than minds are inflated at University.
The food here is quite good. I'm quite partial to the duck, of
course; but in memory of Sir Bohort I recommend you feast on
sauerkraut, sausage, and lentils.
