No surprise here — we’ve all read this story before:
The First Lady never left off quarreling with the other players and shouting, "Off with his head!" or "Off with her head!" By the end of half an hour or so, all the players, except the King, the Queen and the Princess were in custody of the soldiers and under sentence of execution.
It wasn’t long before the Queen was again in a furious passion and once more went stamping about and shouting, "Off with his head!" or "Off with her head!" about once in a minute.
"They're dreadfully fond of beheading people here," thought the anonymous source; "the great wonder is that there's anyone left alive!"
(with apologies to Lewis Carroll)
