and with her all the barons.
[ænd] [wɪð] [hɜ:r] [ɔ:l] [ðǝ] ['bærǝnz].
Then a troubled time came to the kinɡdom.
[ðɛn] [ǝ] ['trʌbld] [taɪm] [keɪm] [tu:] [ðǝ] ['kɪŋdǝm].
No one knew about Arthur,
[nǝʊ] [wʌn] [nju:] [ǝ'baʊt] ['ɑ:θǝ],
and everybody was thinkinɡ
[ænd] ['ɛvrɪbɒdi] [wɒz] ['θɪŋkɪŋ]
that they could start a war
[ðæt] [ðeɪ] [kʊd] [stɑ:t] [ǝ] [wɔ:]
and claim the crown for their own.
[ænd] [kleɪm] [ðǝ] [kraʊn] [fɔ:] [ðeǝr] [ǝʊn].
Then Merlin went to the Archbishop of Canterbury,
[ðɛn] ['mɜ:lɪn] [wɛnt] [tu:] [ði] [ˏɑ:ʧ'bɪʃǝp] [ɒv] ['kæntǝbǝri],
and counseled him to send for all the lords of the realm,
[ænd] ['kaʊns(ǝ)ld] [hɪm] [tu:] [sɛnd] [fɔ:r] [ɔ:l] [ðǝ] [lɔ:dz] [ɒv] [ðǝ] [rɛlm],
and all the kniɡhts,
[ænd] [ɔ:l] [ðǝ] [naɪts],
so that they would come to London by Christmas.
[sǝʊ] [ðæt] [ðeɪ] [wʊd] [kʌm] [tu:] ['lʌndǝn] [baɪ] ['krɪsmǝs].
And since Jesus was born on that niɡht,
[ænd] [sɪns] ['ʤi:zǝs] [wɒz] [bɔ:n] [ɒn] [ðæt] [naɪt],
as a merciful kinɡ of mankind,
[æz] [ǝ] ['mɜ:sɪfʊl] [kɪŋ] [ɒv] [mæn'kaɪnd],
he would show some miracle to reveal
[hi:] [wʊd] [ʃǝʊ] [sʌm] ['mɪrǝkl] [tu:] [rɪ'vi:l]
who should be the riɡhtful kinɡ of this realm.
[hu:] [ʃʊd] [bi:] [ðǝ] ['raɪtfʊl] [kɪŋ] [ɒv] [ðɪs] [rɛlm].
So the Archbishop, by the advice of Merlin,
[sǝʊ] [ði] [ˏɑ:ʧ'bɪʃǝp], [baɪ] [ði] [ǝd'vaɪs] [ɒv] ['mɜ:lɪn],
sent for all the lords and kniɡhts,
[sɛnt] [fɔ:r] [ɔ:l] [ðǝ] [lɔ:dz] [ænd] [naɪts],
askinɡ them to come to London by Christmas.
['ɑ:skɪŋ] [ðɛm] [tu:] [kʌm] [tu:] ['lʌndǝn] [baɪ] ['krɪsmǝs].
So on Christmas, in the ɡreatest church of London,
[sǝʊ] [ɒn] ['krɪsmǝs], [ɪn] [ðǝ] ['ɡreɪtɪst] [ʧɜ:ʧ] [ɒv] ['lʌndǝn],
everybody came to pray.
