Lord James is the most valiant of knights. Never one to back down from
adventure, he readily heeds the call to travel to distant lands to
defend his kingdom. On such occassions he is forced to leave behind his
Lady-Wife, the fair Kelly. While faithfully tending to their mannor is
his absence, she thought of her deep love for him, and longed to
recreate their wedding day. Some villagers scoffed, saying she could
not wed the same man twice. Once her unyielding mind was made up,
preperations began at once for the joyous event. Tailors and bakers
were pressed into service. A calligrapher was hired to create the banns
and post them. No detail was left undone. And although they had been
wed these many years, a dowry was even offered. It consisted of nine
acres of land, two horses (one being lame), a tapestry, ten bottles of
exotic oils and spices, and four doves. Under pain of death, Lord James
cheerfully accepted said dowry and all was well.
And so it was done, and all honored guests joined them on the ninth
day of the tenth month, in the year Two Thousand and Four, to witness
the recreation of their wedding vows.
