/ Prophets have honour all over the Earth, / Except in the village where they were born, / Where such as knew them boys from birth / Nature-ally hold 'em in scorn.

/ When Prophets are naughty and young and vain, / They make a won'erful grievance of it; / (You can see by their writings how they complain), / But Oh, 'tis won'erful good for the Prophet!
