"He said, "Since I'm the one to start the game,
The lot I drew is welcome, in God's name!
Now let us ride, and hear what I've to say."
And with that word we rode forth on our way,
As he began at once with merry cheer
To tell his tale, and spoke as you may hear."
- Geoffrey Chaucer in The Canterbury Tales
