Three men sit in a circle The first is a scribe he speaks of great science of alchemy and astronomy, how he computes large sums and numerals, and can create new substance. The man to his left says: "Yes, all and good, but when faced with a lion, your pen and ink will not save you." The second is a warrior he tells tales of boast: of his swords and his spears his strength and his size. How he bested 60 men all at once on a bridge in battle. the man to his left says: "All that may be true, but hurts your spirit too. It grows weary and sad." The third is a monk. He talks of enlightenment of good and evil. of balance and peace and things such as man of love and grace. The man to his left says: "For a good spirit, all that may be, but when wolves come to your door, loving them wont do you much good."
