APES
The apes do unto one another
Chapter 4
jThereupon bands of apes turned upon other bands of apes and transfixed one other with many thousands of pointed sticks.
2kAnd brown apes killed black apes, even unto extinction.
3lRed apes slew green apes, leaving none alive,
4mAnd likewise white apes slew yellow apes, and tall apes slew small apes,
5nAnd wide apes slew narrow apes, and thin apes slew fat apes,
6oAnd slow apes slew swift apes, and weak apes slew strong apes,
7pAnd clever apes slew all the dull apes, and then the strong apes, and the swift apes, and the thin apes, and the wide apes, and the tall apes, and the white apes, and the red apes, and the brown apes,
8qUntil the clever apes were all alone on the earth, with the exception of the other living things and many, many trees that could be turned into pointed sticks.
