Lol, not REALLY old like you. Just getting closer to old. It's just one of those phrases that stuck in my head after watching it all those years ago. I've always liked rhymes like that, and I think I remember (vaguely) repeating it to myself when I heard it in the movie. I like that kind of silly nonsensical dialogue(i.e. who's on first)
Here you guys go(I promise, I answered before searching): Hawkins: I've got it! I've got it! The pellet with the poison's in the vessel with the pestle; the chalice from the palace has the brew that is true! Right? Griselda: Right. But there's been a change: they broke the chalice from the palace! Hawkins: They broke the chalice from the palace? Griselda: And replaced it with a flagon. Hawkins: A flagon...? Griselda: With the figure of a dragon. Hawkins: Flagon with a dragon. Griselda: Right. Hawkins: But did you put the pellet with the poison in the vessel with the pestle? Griselda: No!!! The pellet with the poison's in the flagon with the dragon! The vessel with the pestle has the brew that is true! Hawkins: The pellet with the poison's in the flagon with the dragon; the vessel with the pestle has the brew that is true. Griselda: Just remember that.
