Can you work this out? It is genuinely from Henry VIII's time. The king's jester goes to him and says he can make the king's horse talk before the week is out. The king says "fine, but if you don't you will be executed". Jester says, "OK". The jester's friends are distraught, telling him "you are certain to die; no horse can talk, what's going to happen to you when the week is out?". The jester replies: "Well, either I will die, or the king will die, or the horse will talk!" Does anyone understand that???
