Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Fine Old Hebrew Gentleman The Sons of Sarah The Sons of Sarah seldom bother - they have inherited tricks by the peck; For the Sons of Sarah favour their Mother, who played it off on Abimelech; And, because they are sons of an elderly lady, who found favour in Abraham´s eyes, "When he was an hundred," the Sons of Sarah are old men´s sons and extremely wise. It is their care in all the ages to collar the profit to scheme and enmesh. It is their care that the man who engages to pay must pay in cash or in flesh; It is their care that the Courts judge truly; it is their care to sue and distrain, To swap and sell and promote, and duly to swap and sell and promote again. They say to the merchant "That´s ours, hand over." They say to the minor: "Thix hundred per thent." They say to the widow: "My dear, bring us cover," and they suck and suck till the blood be spent. So they may guzzle and save and fatten and limp from Poland into Mayfair, And pat their stomachs and leer and batten and pile up more shekels "everywhere." To these from birth is Honour forbidden, from these till death is mercy afar; They are concerned with matters hidden; beneath the ledgers their altars are; The secret fountain they follow up, waters withdrawn to keep from the mouth, And they gather the floods as in a cup and pour them for gold at the City´s drought.
