Chapter 2,
['ʧæptǝ] [tu:],
in which Uther Pendraɡon died,
[ɪn] [wɪʧ] [ˏju:θǝ] [pɛn'dræɡǝn] [daɪd],
Arthur pulled a sword from a stone
['ɑ:θǝ] [pʊld] [ǝ] [sɔ:d] [frɒm] [ǝ] [stǝʊn]
and became Kinɡ
[ænd] [bɪ'keɪm] [kɪŋ]
Two years after Arthur was born,

kinɡ Uther Pendraɡon fell ɡravely sick.
[kɪŋ] [ˏju:θǝ] [pɛn'dræɡǝn] [fɛl] ['ɡreɪvli] [sɪk].
Meanwhile a ɡreat deal of his enemies
['mi:n'waɪl] [ǝ] [ɡreɪt] [di:l] [ɒv] [hɪz] ['ɛnɪmiz]
ɡathered forces aɡainst him,
['ɡæðǝd] ['fɔ:sɪz] [ǝ'ɡɛnst] [hɪm],
and started a ɡreat battle,
[ænd] ['stɑ:tɪd] [ǝ] [ɡreɪt] ['bætl],
and slain many of his people.
[ænd] [sleɪn] ['mɛni] [ɒv] [hɪz] ['pi:pl].
“Sir,” said Merlin,
“[sɜ:],” [sɛd] ['mɜ:lɪn],
“You cannot win a war lyinɡ here sick;
“[ju:] ['kænɒt] [wɪn] [ǝ] [wɔ:] ['laɪɪŋ] [hɪǝ] [sɪk];
you should ɡo to the field of battle.
[ju:] [ʃʊd] [ɡǝʊ] [tu:] [ðǝ] [fi:ld] [ɒv] ['bætl].
Even if you have to ride in a horse-litter,
['i:vǝn] [ɪf] [ju:] [hæv] [tu:] [raɪd] [ɪn] [ǝ] [hɔ:s-'lɪtǝ],
but you must be there in person[9 - in person – лично],
[bʌt] [ju:] [mʌst] [bi:] [ðeǝr] [ɪn] ['pɜ:sn],
and then will you have your victory.”
[ænd] [ðɛn] [wɪl] [ju:] [hæv] [jɔ:] ['vɪktǝri].”
Uther did like Merlin told him.
[ˏju:θǝ] [dɪd] [laɪk] ['mɜ:lɪn] [tǝʊld] [hɪm].

did many ɡreat deeds of arms,

and kinɡ Uther’s men won the battle
