It was just after that big scandal with King Henry the Eighth. You know the scandal of him having all those children and killing his wives. It was so big that it shook the kingdom. People were refusing to come to England. People were leaving England. The whole kingdom was in disarrayed. And England had so many Prime Ministers because they could not keep up with the King's demands. It was a very dark time in England. King Henry was tired of relations. He was tired of going on dates. He was tired of being used and mistreated by his spouses. So King Henry still wanted to be king and stay on the throne tried many things. He tried to cheer the people up with a popular song and the lyrics were Don't hurt me baby. Don't hurt me now. I gotta hard time already. I gotta rule now. Babe Babe don't leave me or that's the end of you. And the people pretended to like the song and they dance to it. But they hated the song. King Henry asked to be entertained and the Prime Minister tried to court the King but he was lamed and exhausted. He suggested that the King hired an entertainer. At first the King hired dancers but they were all old women. And he did not know until the women took off their veils. And he was furious. How could the people send in old chicks to please me? How could they? Why would they send in these old hoors? And the Prime Minster stopped the King before he was sharpening the blades of the executioner. So his close advisors told him to go undercover and find entertainment. And they gave him a name Priolin. So the King went on a diet and tried to look younger and he saw no subjects at his court. He went out with his crew among the common folks. And he walk the streets and heard laughter. And it was a roaring laughter. And he walk in the back, and they were doing comedy. The King thought it was funny and he laughed. And he begin to drink. And he told everyone that his name was Priolin. And then the King begin to do comedy one night. He would make fun of himself and slapping the closest fellas. And he dreamed that he was still there but was butt naked at the bar and his crew protected him. And the Prime Minister heard and tried to regroup. And he demanded that the King be King again. And so the King explained the importance of comedy and he was to appoint an official Court Jester. After that the people went wild at the throne. Citizens begin to once again try to introduce their daughters to the King but the King was wised now and he was dating the Prime Minster's daughter Velvet. So over dinner with the Prime Minister and Cabinet and his wife to be. The King would asked for entertainment. The first candidate came from France and he could not speak English so the King had a comedy interpreter. And the King thought he wanted to eat or he wanted to dine because he kept signaling round something. And the interpreter told the King that he is talking about his wife to be Velvet. The King quit laughing and said off with his head. Then the other evening the candidate kept playing with fire and blow it out in the oddest places and the King said put him in a nut house. Then the other evening the candidate was a female clown and she kept getting between the King and his wife to be making balloon animals and being suggestive so his wife to be Velvet said Off with her head.
