 Pharoah forced the Herbrew slaves to make bread without straw  Moses led them to the Red Sea, where they made unleaven bread, which is bread without any ingredients.  Afterwards Moses went up to Mt Cyanide to get the ten Commandments. He died before he ever reached Canada.  David was a Hebrew King skilled at playing the liar. He fought the Finklesteins, a race of people who lived in Biblical times.  Solomon, one of David's sons, had 300 wives and 700 porcupines.  The government of England was a limited mockery.  From the womb of Henry VIII protestantism was born. He found walking difficult as he had an abbess (sic) on his knee.
