Jenny Over-There was once called in the context of her job at the Multidimensional Finders Service by a "tired-sounding" gentleman to help locate the King of England], a “foolish, fond old man” who had “run away”. Jenny divined that, after losing his clothing in a storm (as reported by the Earl of Kent), he had put on a flower crown, and she informed the caller that he was currently “pestering a blind man (…) up by a big tree”.

Behind the scenes
The plot details summarised in The Tribulations of Jenny Over-There allow the identification of the King as (a parody of) Shakespeare's King Lear, himself an adaption of the legendary king Leir. “The gentleman” is one of two minor characters in the play credited as simply “GENTLEMAN”.
