amgreene (Andrew Marc Greene):
The Rival Curates
by ``Bab''
[Part II]
His helmet was a glance
that spoke of holy gladness;
A saintly smile his lance,
His shield a tear of sadness.
His Vicar smiled to see
This armour on him buckled;
With pardonable glee
He blessed himself and chuckled:
``In mildness to abound
My curate's sole design is,
In all the country round
There's none so mild as mine is!''
And HOOPER, disinclined
His trumpet to be blowing,
Yet didn't think you'd find
A milder curate going.

finds himself no wiser than before," Bokonon tells us. "He is full of
murderous resentment of people who are ignorant without having come by
their ignorance the hard way."
