Talk:The Drawing of the Dark/@comment-5653093-20121215215454

This reminds me of a poem I read...

The best-laid schemes o' mice an 'men Gang aft agley, An'lea'e us nought but grief an' pain, For promis'd joy!

Means that sometimes, when you plan for things to happen, they don't turn out the way you want it to be - Merlin's mistakes in that episode of which he will certainly pay for next episode (loses his magic I think - then he will REALLY be angry at Morgana).

(I may have got the poem slightly wrong - I learned it off by heart ages ago).
