Their tempers short.
The Gascon cadets of Castel-Jaloux.

:43:03
Eagle-eyed, always game
Cat's whiskers, lion's might

:43:08
nearer they came
in boots to make them lame

:43:11
but with a heart so light
for they thirst for fame.

:43:14
Sweet is their name in the great fight.
:43:17
Ever ready to main
they put foes to flight.

:43:20
The Gascon cadets
make cuckolds every night!

:43:26
A gentleman's retinue needs a poet.
Will you be mine?

:43:30
I don't join retinues.
:43:33
My uncle, Richelieu, would approve.
I could help you.

:43:37
Good God!
:43:39
I suppose you've written a play?
:43:41

:44:05
The victims' remains!
:44:08
Their employer must be in a fury!
:44:11
But who was he?
:44:13
It was I.
:44:16
They were to do the lowly task
of punishing a drunken rhymer.

:44:21
A true epic poet!
:44:23
You dared...
:44:24
Would you like to return these
to your friends?

:44:28
You thwarted the plans I made...
:44:31
To murder?
:44:32
Insolence!
:44:38
Swords up! We're leaving!
:44:40
Out of here! All of you!
:44:49
Monsieur, have you read Don Quixote?
:44:52
I've practically lived it.
:44:55
Meditate on the windmill chapter.
:44:58
Chapter thirteen.
:44:59
If you fight with windmills...
