What do you see up there?
I see a mare with a braided mane
Nahhh – it’s more like a duck
No, that one’s a duck
Why not a swan? With a ring on its toe… that is stole from a giant who lived in the sun with a spear made of wax and a goat that drank wine and…
Hey look – it’s a wheel
Its sort of a wheel. But it’s more like a cauldron that’s bubbling over with secrets and wisdom and cheese!
I like cheese

What do you see up there?
I see a forest with shadows to hide in…
No, it’s more like a cradle
What??
OK, a forest
…with shadows to hide in and Saxons behind every tree! And the Roman commander is injured and bleeding, with no one to save him but me!!!
But what about me?
No one to save him but UUSSSS!
What do you see up there?

What do you see up there?
I see a gown and a beautiful crown and ten laughing babies, no twelve… no, thirteen!
You want a huge family… and I just wanna get rid of mine!
I think babies are wonderful. All sweet and loving… and who knows what they’ll do when they grow up?
Have you ever cleaned a baby?
Yeah. I like the way they smell
Maybe they’ll fly like the children of Lir…
… but not have to suffer at all…
Maybe they’ll soar even higher than dragons…

GASP – did you see that??
