2. The Ballad of Settembrini (Morrid, Moksha Man - 2m 38s)

8. I've Created a Monster (Morrid - 5m 22s)

"Sir! That is no way to refer to your new-born child!" gasped the midwife in horror. The joke was on her though: I am King Minos of the ancient island state of Crete, my wife is Pasiphaë which made our precious little bundle-of-joy the half-bull, half-human monster widely known as The Minotaur.
