With a, we need to look out for each other. What are we if not that? [Cudred leads Alfred to the barn after giving him an oaten cake.] Cudred: It's a small, cold barn, but it'll keep you warm. Alfred: Your barn is a palace to a traveler in my condition. Thank you so much. Cudred: Sir, yours is a nobleman's voice. Are you posing as an earl?

Incomplete and unclear question. I assumed you want the correct dialogue that occurred in King Alfred retold by Richard Madsen.

Step-by-step explanation:

The actual dialogue reads;

"Cudred: We must care for each other, Switha. Otherwise, what are we?

[Cudred gives Alfred an oaten cake, then leads him to the barn.]

Cudred: The barn is small and cold, but it will keep you safe.

Alfred: For a traveler in my condition, your barn is a palace. I thank you.

Cudred: Sir, your speech is that of a nobleman. Are you an

earl in disguise?

Alfred: [pauses, then decides] Good sir. I am Alfred, thy

king. I am in hiding from the invading Danes. But soon I

shall rejoin my army and set our country free.

Cudred: [kneels] My King! Sire, let us return to the cottage."
