1 Upon hearing these words, the children expressed their shock and outrage, saying,
2 "Truly we are shocked and outraged at your ccallousness.
3 "Our friends have told us that you are our friend,
4 "And that you cared for us, and wished to make our lives better.
5 "Now, you present us with a frozen shoulder,
6 "And conduct yourself like a cranium made of excrement.
7 "What gives?"
8 Whereupon Harry replied, You must be thinking about somebody else,

22 If you can have your own way all the time,
23 Which I do,
24 hBecause I am Harry,
25 And I have imy own way,
26 Which is the jonly way.
27 And then the children were amazed and said to Harry, "If we follow you, can we also have a kLearjet and beachfront property and anything else we want?
28 "We would think about such an option very seriously,
29 "Because to tell you the truth, all this political stuff is starting to seem elderly to us,
30 "And ldangerous."
31 And then multitudes of children surrounded Harry and inquired how they might follow him, and professed their great willingness to mthink about joining him and following his way.

1 But there was one among them who did not join in,
2 And did not speak to Harry at all,
3 But sat on the ground some distance away,

5 Yet Harry saw him where he sat, and called to him, saying, You with the Lucky Strike,
