Knight and Day

"Knight and Day"*

*During the days of King Arthur, the young men
were having to join the military and fight in the
crusades. One such young man had just gotten
married and was forced to leave before "knowing"
her. She was still wearing the chastity belt and
he had the only key. He was so concerned about
her that on his way out to the crusades he met
with his best friend who was staying behind. He
told his friend, "Keep this key, and if I am killed,
you have my permission to use it."

"Promise me that you will be an honorable friend
and take care of her, and that you will not use it
until you have confirmed my death. The two men
made a pact, and the young man rode off to join
the distant battle.

About two hours later, as he was traveling to join
the battle, the young man noticed a rider
approaching at a full gallop, with a cloud of dust
behind him. It was not long before he recognized
the rider. It was his best friend. As his friend
approached he was waving frantically, with the
key in his hand shouting at the top of his voice,

"You gave me the wrong key!"
