First is strong, Second wise, Third rich,
First sees a popper, Second a student, Third a customer,
First gives a ham, Second a book, Third a loan.
First sees rapids, Second a foutain of life, Third an unmade bridge,
First builds a bridge, Second a road, Third a toll.
First sees a battle, Second a slaughter, Third a profit to be had,
First sides with the weak, Second the innocent,
Third sells both sides weapons,
First dies in glory, Second in honor, Third in both sides rage.
