VANQUISH
A word most commonly used in solemn ceremonies, usually of the form
"Behold the devil, I now vanquish thee" in weird religious
ceremonies or bad fantasy books. The amusing thing being that the
speaker is generally of the mistaken belief that the use of a
little Olde English will result in the demise of Satan for all
eternity. "Oh no Earthlings, you have commanded me to be
vanquished, so I must! Argghhh! You held up white candles! I'm done
for!" It's far more likely to catch his notice, where-upon he
proclaims "You must be joking, let's be having yer then", and drags
the anguished soul down into hell.
