Merlin: [Alarmed] What's this? What's this?

Mador: Keep it, Uryenes!

Uryenes: [hesitates and then touches Excalibur to Arthur's shoulder] In the name of God, St Michael and St George, I give you the right to bear arms and the power to mete justice!

Merlin: I never saw this.

Uryenes: Rise... King Arthur.

[Uryenes kneels before Arthur]

Uryenes: I am your humble knight, and I swear allegiance to the courage in your veins. So strong it is, its source must be Uther Pendragon's. I doubt you no more!

Uryenes: NO, I challenge that!

Sir Ector: The sword has been drawn!
