:44:00
Look, Cyrano.
:44:01
We found this on our way
feathers of the fowl you sent away.
: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...
:45:02
Are my foes like the wind?
:45:04
their heavy spars
may spin you down to the mud.
:45:08
Or lift me to the stars.
:45:17
You must admit...
:45:18
I shall never be sated!
I like to displease and be hated.
:45:22
With more calm, fortune and fame
:45:25
What should I do?
:45:26
Seek out a powerful patron to pursue?
:45:28
Cling to him like a vine?
:45:32
Wind around him to fawn and whine?
:45:35
And rise through ruse instead of merit?
:45:38
No thank you!
:45:42
Compose, as a rule
poems for usurers?
:45:45
Play the fool
hoping to see some minister
:45:49
give a smile that's not sinister?
:45:52
No thank you!
:45:53
Breakfast off a toad?
Grovel on the dirty road?
:45:57
Wear the knees of my breeches through?
