Do you really mean to make people like him? They taught us in the school-books that he was a bad good-for-nothing king.
WETHERELL
Perhaps, as Mark Twain might allege, he did not choose to consider himself as being in "the king business." He was a choice wag, at any rate.

Yes: though not much worse than you. And he was the last Mind we have seen, or shall ever see, on the throne.
WETHERELL
Owch! Treason! She is all she should be, God bless her.
