All was then done as we had agreed,
2And the Ultra-Harriers and their lnew followers gave Harry a little more time in exchange for a huge bonus,
3mAnd they wrote a bunch of letters and other communiqués,
4nAnd the seat of the Pontifical Harrier Parish was established in Philadelphia,
5oAnd the parish organization grew so big that it needed a lot of fancy new ranks and titles,
6Including the pNumber One spot, which Ned held for a while,
7qAnd Arch-Harriers, who got big salaries and a percentage of the profits,
8aAnd Arch-Angels, who got paid by the hour but also pulled down a percentage of the gross,
9bAnd Chosen Ones, who got a nice salary and bonus,
10cAnd Angels, of course, who got free Consolation, plus wages and perks,
11dAnd Parish Beacon, who got a discount on Consolation,
12eAnd Parish Guards, who got paid by the Angels they reported to,
13fAnd there were even some Vice-Presidents, which Harry thought was a nice touch when he heard about it,
14gAlthough I, Willie, didn’t think much of it when I got passed over for Vice-President of Orthodoxy,
15hAfter all I had done,
16Because Ultra-Harriers didn’t get any salary, or bonus, or percentages, or compensation of any kind,
17Unless you count the discount on Consolation.
