"The Queen of Narnia and Empress of the Lone Islands desires a safe conduct to come and speak with you," said the dwarf, " on a matter which is as much to your advantage as to hers." ...
"Oh," said Mr. Beaver. "So that's how you came to imagine yourself a queen -- because you were the Emperor's hangman. I see." From C.S. Lewis's, The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe |

Jesus said to them, "I am he."[a] Judas, who betrayed him, was standing with them. 6(H) When Jesus[b] said to them, "I am he," they drew back and fell to the ground. 7So he asked them again, (I) "Whom do you seek?" And they said, "Jesus of Nazareth." 8Jesus answered, "I told you that I am he. So, if you seek me, let these men go." 9(J) This was to fulfill the word that he had spoken: "Of those whom you gave me I have lost not one." 10Then Simon Peter,(K) having a sword, drew it and struck the high priest’s servant[c] and cut off his right ear. (The servant’s name was Malchus.) 11So Jesus said to Peter, "Put your sword into its sheath;(L) shall I not drink the cup that the Father has given me?" |
