Chapter 3
The years passed. Harry was a beautiful and extraordinary child. Everyone said so. Everyone tried to understand him, but they could not, and this he explained to them with an authority beyond his years.
2ffI am of you, but I do not belong to you, he said. I am not bound by the bonds that bind you. Remember this, because I have said it.
3And in hearing this, his elders were amazed, and they remarked among themselves upon his forcefulness, and were afraid.
4“Who is this?” they said, one to another, “who speaks in this new way that we do not understand? aTruly, he is unlike what we ourselves were at his age.”
5And Harry merely smiled, as if he were possessed of some great knowledge, and his parents treated him with great tenderness and care, certain that his was a will which should be obeyed.
