Would Arthur have really died in this episode if the snakes were used on him? When Arthur brought his concern before Uther, he had a witness. The knight who had been bitten by the snake already. Gaius as able to bring him back to  consciousness. So was the snake's venom actually deadly? Of course, it shows this same knight dying because the snakes are sent to attack him again.
