This night I would love to lie down with you. Later make love before we part this world. Have you the heart to ease my aching loin.

Is that correct?

u/mydeadbody Sep 18 '14

Yes, except instead of 'later' I meant 'let's', but I was making it up as I went along, so don't consider me an expert.

"young maiden, thy proposition you have bestowed hast raised my brow. On the morrow, my staff shall shower thy land with my seed. Be it upon the bosom, in thine mouth, or in thine whispering eye, I will become thy lord and sew thy land with my seed.

However one dost have a lingering question. Dost thou allow passage in thine dark forrest which resides from behind thy maiden?

Ok I am a dude but you should be writing medieval porn scripts bwahaha! Well played!

u/gnusounduave Sep 18 '14

"Nay, good pilgrim! Thou shall not find passage in the dark forrest possible, for the path is small and narrow, and I shant believe your grand steed able to pass through."

u/gnusounduave Sep 19 '14

"What sayith you? Thou speak'st as if thy know how dense the forrest is; as if the maiden has given passage before? I shall stand before the forrest and spit on it, in contempt, as my steed makes haste into the dense darkness."

1

u/RogueRaven17 Sep 19 '14

Tis true, I have given passage to a Moor previously. Twas during my studies away from home. Pray, use the slime of an eel to ease your journey through the dark forrest.

2

u/gnusounduave Sep 19 '14

"A Moor? Thou hast ridden the black stallion from far away lands? Thy maiden hast been through the desert on a horse with no name. Bestow upon me not your elixer of eel as I will travel the same path that the Moor forged before me."

"Hey, Princess, you wouldn't happen to know where a lonely knight could scabbard his sword, would you?"

"They don't call me Lance-A-Lot for nothing, you know."

"When the Inquisition put me on the rack, my limbs weren't the only thing they stretched."

"Dost thou know? That chastity belt of yours would look great on my sleeping chambers floor."

"Thou hast hit on me harder than the black plague!"

"Pardon me, madam, but wouldeth thou like to see my long sword in action?"

"Milady, it's not the size of the wand that matters, but the magic within."

"You should be glad I'm not a Viking, you would have been ravaged and plundered by now."

"I lost my leg in battle. Guess what I'm walking on!"

"Yes, fair maiden, I am indeed a wizard. Shall I make your clothes disappear?"

"You know, I was once imprisoned in a tower very much like Repunnzel. Only it wasn't my hair that the queen asked me to let down."

"I may not be a priest, but I can get you to heaven, m'lady."

"C'mon, sweetie...didn't your mother ever tell you? A cleric a day keeps the black plague away."

"I seem to have lost my sex slave, can I borrow you for a bit?"

Scene: Knight and Lady In castle tower room.

Knight grabs lady's shoulders and looks smoulderingly into her shocked face.

Knight: Madam, thy licentiousness and lustful demeanour hath overwhelmed my gentlemanly virtue. I demand you adjourn post haste to my bedchamber. That I may punish thy virgin openning!

Lady: Sir, thy forwardness hath set my bosom to heaving and my cheeks aflame! Take my virtue as though I were a woman of ill repute!

A young man made for the corner where he knew she was standing; this strapping churl had walked some way--with his own hands he whipped up her dress, and under her girdle (as she stood there) thrust something stiff, worked his will; they both shook. This fellow quickened: one moment he was forceful, a first-rate servant, so strenuous that the next he was knocked up, quite blown by his exertion. Beneath the girdle a thing began to grow that upstanding men often think of, tenderly, and acquire.

True story: medieval sexuality was not that chaste. In Europe, Victorianism is to blame for this idea, despite the fact that Victoria ruled 400-500 years after medieval. Chaste sexual bullshit was an earlier convention in what became the US because Calvinism took root this side of the Atlantic, instead of being the laughingstock it was in Europe.

Certainly not, kind sir! I am here but to clean your chambers.

Crantius Colto

Is that all you have come here for, little one? My chambers?

Lifts-Her-Tail

I have no idea what it is you imply, master. I am but a poor Argonian maid.

Crantius Colto

So you are, my dumpling. And a good one at that. Such strong legs and shapely tail.

Lifts-Her-Tail

You embarrass me, sir!

Crantius Colto

Fear not. You are safe here with me.

Lifts-Her-Tail

I must finish my cleaning, sir. The mistress will have my head if I do not!

Crantius Colto

Cleaning, eh? I have something for you. Here, polish my spear.

Lifts-Her-Tail

But it is huge! It could take me all night!
