Man monologue — Arthur : $b A tragedy
Patience, my lord, And I will tell you all. The dawn was breaking. The guard had just relieved us. It was then Sir Gareth and Sir Gaheris summoned me On the King’s business. I knew not what it was. We went with them. They had no arms. We went; We came to the Queen’s door, and it was open. The Queen stood there, like one that waited us.
