The Adventures of Munchausen
"To dear Munchausen"
- Oh, Matilda, take it, take it away!
One day, I saw a drawing of a peacock in an ancient book.
"How wonderfully this beautiful bird must sing!", I thought.
From the book, I found out that there is a peacock trapped
in the tower of the famous Jinn Rahat Ibn Lokum.
Without a minute to lose, I went to the East.

"The Jinn is having lunch. Do not disturb."
- Where do we go, oh, beauty of my days?
- To the Jinn!
Could the greatly respected Jinn...

that wonderful bird referred to as... uhh... the peacock?
- Eh, my dear fellow...
What peacock-shmeacock?
Don't you see that I'm eating?
- You buy!
- The greatly respected Jinn has apparently misunderstood me.
I was just curious if he could kindly gi-
That was a clear misunderstanding...
My only wish was to obtain from the greatly respe-

Not all is gold that glitters.
And that is true,
I swear by my tricorne hat!
