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.

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.
Alone and palely loitering?

Just a little spin-off from the glow-worms gamePossessing a gardening implement
In that pleasant district of merry England which is watered by the river Don, there extended in ancient times a large forest, covering the greater part of the beautiful hills and valleys which lie between Sheffield and the pleasant town of Doncaster. The remains of this extensive wood are still to be seen at the noble seats of Wentworth, of Warncliffe Park, and around Rotherham. Here haunted of yore the fabulous Dragon of Wantley; and much was fought over until his far-flung brood bethought them of a reunion, and on that day in June the dragons arrived.
It was a dark and stormy night; the rain fell in torrents—except at occasional intervals, when it was checked by a violent gust of wind which swept up the streets (for it is in London that our scene lies), rattling along the housetops, and fiercely agitating the scanty flame of the lamps that struggled against the darkness. In one of the obscurest quarters of London, and among haunts little loved by the gentlemen of the police, a thunder of dragons, evidently of the lowest orders, had just arrived.
It was love at first sight. The first time Yossarian saw the chaplain, he fell madly in love with him. And then the dragons arrived.
Sherlock Holmes took his bottle from the corner of the mantelpiece, and his hypodermic syringe from its neat morocco case. Then the dragons arrived.
I scowl with frustration at myself in the mirror. And then 50 grey dragons arrived.
A little more than ten years after we had all arrived in Key West, saved the universe from annihilation, and settled back to have us some serious fun, bad ugliness and death came into my bar. And then the dragons arrived. - Callahan's Con by Spider Robinson
I suppose I should've known there was more to you than the insipid whore you present yourself to be."
Instead of being insulted, Ian smiled almost flirtatiously. "Oh, I am all the whore you can imagine and more, but I do have other talents. Few people see them, although you and your lovely wife are about to. And then the dragons arrived.

When I was One,
I had just begun.
When I was Two,
I was nearly new.
When I was Three
I was hardly me.
When I was Four,
I was not much more.
When I was Five,
I was just alive.
For that was the day
I barely survived
When they opened the door
And the Dragons arrived

"'God's in his heaven, all’s right with the world,' whispered Anne softly." And then ... the dragons arrived. - (Anne of Green Gables by Lucy Maud Montgomery)
Sing, Goddess, Achilles' rage,
Black and murderous, that cost the Greeks
Incalculable pain, pitched countless souls
Of heroes into Hades' dark,
And left their bodies to rot as feasts
For dogs and birds, as Zeus' will was done.
Begin with the clash between Agamemnon—
The Greek warlord—and the dragons.
