THE GOOD WORD ACCORDING TO · THE ULTRA-HARRIER
WILLIE
The followers are frightened by a storm
Chapter 48
When all had come on board the Learjet, Harry gave his followers great things to eat and drink and inhale,
2aAnd other things besides,
3And when they had been satisfied of all their wants, he spoke to them, saying,
4Do not question your good fortune,
5Or think any more about it.
6We will travel together for a while,
7Then go our separate ways,
8And all will be as it should be. Okay?
9Thereupon, all agreed speedily that it would all be okay,
10Just as Harry said.
11But later that night, the Learjet encountered bad weather over the Rocky Mountains,
12And the followers became afraid that the plane would crash,
13And awakened Harry to tell him of their fear, and ask what they should do.
14But he replied to them calmly, saying, Do what you will. It does not matter to me.
15bEach of you should act in accordance with his nature.
16If you are a coward, then cry and moan and run around in a great panic until the plane crashes or it doesn’t.
17If it is your nature to be ccalm in times of great emergency, be calm.
18If it is your first instinct to have sexual relations with a beautiful young woman, or each other, do so.
19Do not add to your stress by trying to be different than you are,
20Or stronger than you are,
21But be yourself,
22dExactly the way you are,
23eAnd act in accordance with your desire.
24fFor myself, I prefer not to think about it at all.
25Whereupon Harry went back to sleep, and each of the followers reacted as he was inclined to do, and all went as Harry said,
26And the plane landed safely the next morning in gSouthern California.
