2046. FERDINAND AND ISABELLA TOO (at the Escorial/the words of Philip, 1586):

FERDINAND AND ISABELLA
(at the Escorial/the words of Philip, 1586)
"Hen cloud distaff water waiter waiting.
(Oh how I hate the cold). Hen cloud
distaff....Ferdinand and Isabella too.
I don't know why I built this palace,
though it's not really. It's a monastery
in which I can also live. I am Kingly sort,
after all. Oh, Torquemada, kill them,
each and every. Make the Maitre'd come
home, with nothing on his back. We've
planted outside gardens now, inside.
And inside, we've planted outside gardens.
It's a quizzical, wonderful world."
