****  Continued from ROBIN PYTHON ....


Voice over:  Meanwhile, King Arthur and Bedevere, not more than a swallow's
             flight away, had discovered something.

Knights of Ni: Ni!  Ni!  Ni!  Ni!  Ni!  Ni!
Arthur: Who are you?
Knight of Ni: We are the Knights who say.....   "Ni"!
Arthur: (horrified) No!  Not the Knights who say "Ni"!
Knight of Ni: The same.
Other Knight of Ni: Who are we?
Knight of Ni: We are the keepers of the sacred words: Ni, Ping, and Nee-womm!
Other Knight of Ni: Nee-womm!
Arthur: (to Bedevere) Those who hear them seldom live to tell the tale!
Knight of Ni: The knights who say "Ni" demand..... a sacrifice!
Arthur: Knights of Ni, we are but simple travelers who seek the enchanter who
        lives beyond these woods.
Knights of Ni: Ni!  Ni!  Ni!  Ni!  Ni!  Ni!  Ni!  Ni!  Ni!
Bedevere: No! Noooo!  Aaaugh!  No!
Knight of Ni: We shall say "Ni" to you... if you do not appease us.
Arthur: Well what is it you want?
Knight of Ni: We want.....

(pregnant pause)

                             A SHRUBBERY!!!!
(minor music)
Arthur: A *WHAT*?
Knights of Ni: Ni!  Ni!!  Ni!  Ni!
Arthur; No!  No!  Please, please, no more!  We will find you a shrubbery.
Knight of Ni: You must return here with a shrubbery... or else you will never
              pass through this wood...   alive.
Arthur: O Knights of Ni, you are just and fair, and we will return with a
        shrubbery.
Knight of Ni: One that looks nice.
Arthur: Of course!
Knight of Ni: And not *too* expensive.
Arthur; Yes!
Knight of Ni: Noowwwww.... GO!

(music)

Arthur: O Knights of Ni.  We have brought you your shrubbery.  May we go now?
Knight of Ni: Yes, it is a good shrubbery.  I like the laurels particularly.
              But there is one small problem....
Arthur: What is that?
Knight of Ni: We are now *no longer* the Knights Who Say "Ni"!
Other Knights of Ni: Ni!  Shh! Shh!
Knight of Ni: We are now the Knights who say "Ekky-ekky-ekky-ekky-z'Bang,
              zoom-Boing, z'nourrrwringmm".
Other Knight of Ni: Ni!
Knight of Ni:  Therefore, we must give you a test.
Arthur: What is this test, o Knights of.....
        Knights who 'til recently said "Ni"?
Knight of Ni: Firstly, you must find....

                      ANOTHER SHRUBBERY!!!
(minor music)
Arthur: Oh not *another* shrubbery!!
Knight of Ni: (excitedly) THEN... Then, when you have found the shrubbery,
              you must place it here, beside this shrubbery, only slightly
              higher, so we get the two-level effect with a little path
              running down the middle.
Other Knights of Ni:  A path!  A path!  A path!   Shh, shhh.  Ni!  Ni!
Knight of Ni: Then, when you have found the shrubbery, you must cut down the
              mightiest tree in the forest...
              Wiiiiiithh....  A HERRING!
