Sir Cumference and his son, Radius, sat in the shade of a tree, enjoying a delicious midday meal. Partway through the lunch, Sir Cumference grabbed his stomach and doubled over in pain.
            “Ooooh, my belly!” he wailed. “It feels like fire! Radius! Run to the castle. Find the good doctor and get me a cure.”
