The world becomes ready for Harry
Chapter 4
And it so happened that bwar again descended on the earth, and the cking of the Most Chosen Nation sent out armies to rape a foreign land, and murder their patriots, and dburn their babies, and commit eother acts of a nature that filled the hearts of the righteous with horror.
2And the children, who were the most righteous of all, rose up against the king, and put on fstrange garments, and lived apart from those who did murder and those who did not speak out against murder, and had visions of peace and glove and a world in which the way was simple and clear and htheirs.
3And the people who had lost their children were angry and afraid, and they reproached their king, saying,
4i“Why have you alienated our sons and daughters, whom we love and want to love us, and who no longer love us, but instead revile us and hate us and spit upon us?”
5And the king hung his head and abdicated his throne, and a new king was crowned who waged war with even greater vengeance, killing great multitudes of foreign patriots and babies.
6And when the children reproached jhim, he waged war against them also, ordering them to be beaten when they marched for peace, and lamentation filled the land.
7And the children cried out bitterly, saying to one another, “What has become of our visions? In which direction is the way of peace and justice and happiness, which we have longed for and now despair of?”
8And their gatherings became grim as their visions faded and their questions received no answers.
9Thus it was that the world became ready for Harry, who knew the way.
