THE GOOD WORD ACCORDING TO · THE ULTRA-HARRIER
VINNIE
Some magic with wedding wine
Chapter 51
Sometime after that, Harry and the followers got invited to a awedding,
2Because some of the guys on the groom’s side were worried that the reception would be dull,
3Since it was taking place in the basement of the church,
4bWhich wasn’t a good sign,
5At all,
6And so Harry and the followers agreed to go,
7Which they did,
8And had a marvelous time,
9Because when the wedding vows had been said,
10And the bride had kissed the groom,
11And the priest had pronounced them man and wife,
12Harry spoke up from the back row of the church, saying in a loud voice,
13Those whom mere words have joined together may not now be separated except by teams of clawyers, at a cost of thousands and thousands of dollars. Is this not a wonder to behold?
14And then there was kind of a silence,
15Which ended suddenly in a burst of laughter,
16As the whole congregation found itself unable to swallow its mirth,
17And thus was the ice broken for a terrific reception,
18Which got under way immediately in the basement,
19So that the caterer ran out of champagne in the first ten minutes,
20Which made everyone depressed,
21Until Harry dmagically produced another ten cases,
22eFrom the trunk of his Silver Cloud,
23Which made everything fine again.
