Dearest 10B and C,
Peace ho!
Alas, the end of a quite noble year is upon us.
We bestow unto all of thee our greatest wishes of success on thine (is that the plural of “thy”?!) upcoming examination on thee most weeping, bayed, valiant, blazing, remarkably ambitious Julius Caesar. Whilst we ar’t quite perfectly certain our answers are accurate, we take no responsibility ’tis not so.
*For all of us who have a hard time understanding imitation Shakespearean language, here is the translation of the paragraph above: Good Luck!!!
