It was about the beginning of September, 1664, that I, among the rest of my neighbours, heard in ordinary discourse that the dragons were returned again in Holland; for they had been very violent there, and particularly at Amsterdam and Rotterdam, in the year 1663, whither, they say, they were brought, some said from Italy, others from the Levant, among some goods which were brought home by their Turkey fleet; others said they were brought from Candia; others from Cyprus.
Tractatus logico-draco
The world is everything that is the case.
Dragons have arrived, therefore they are also the case.
Yesterday
All the dragons seemed so far away
Now it looks as though they're here to stay
Oh, !#$* this, let's run away

O what can ail thee, knight-at-arms,
Alone and palely loitering?
The dragons they have all arrived
And no birds sing.
