The Knight's Tale

In times of Old, when Knights were bold

And days were wet and foggy

Lived Belvedere, a gallant knight,

And Archibald, his doggy.

 

The bold Sir Belvedere rode out

To slay a mighty dragon,

And Archibald tagged on behind -

His little tail a waggin'.

 

The dragon snorted from his lair

"Who dares 'gainst me come riding?"

"Tis I," Bold Belvedere replied

(But Archibald was hiding).

 

Against the mighty foe he fought,

Uphill, down dale, all over;

And Archie saw the battle rage

But he stayed under cover.

 

Now see, the dragon overcomes,

Sir Belvedere is flagging

And as they pass the hiding place

Young Archie's tail starts wagging.

 

He cannot see his master fail,

Or lose his spurs for ever;

Brave Archibald will save the day -

And think of something clever.

 

He charges, nips the dragon's tail,

It's wrath 'gainst him is turned

The Knight recovers, grabs his sword ...

Young Archie's tea is earned.

 

Sir Belvedere cuts off its head,

Triumphant homeward goes.

He'll get the credit and reward,

But Archibald - he knows!
