10 Yea, they were full of craft, and their cunning filled the hearts of the righteous sort with envy. And the money that they did make, verily, it was not all of the kind that is amongst the profits.
11 ¶ Now it came to pass that a great dearth of paper arose throughout the land, and all the people were afraid because of it, And they reasoned amongst themselves, the one with the other, saying,
12 By what means shall the scribes instruct us if, so be it, the paper be taken away? And who shall train us up in the way we should go?
13 ¶ And there was a certain man, and his name, it was Northcliffe. And he called all the people unto him, and he spake unto them.
14 And he went down on his knees before them, and he besought them earnestly and with many tears that they should refrain from buying that paper which did bear the sign of The Times.
15 And the power of his eloquence, it did move them mightily. Also, his paper was of the cost of two pennies at a time when two farthings sufficed for another. Wherefore many did hearken unto his prayer.
16 ¶ Now there was a learned scribe, and his name, it was Welz. And he was the first amongst all the men of En that did fly unto the moon.

18 And after it was got together, he sate him down upon a seat, and he did write. And after the writing was finished, he called certain men unto him, and he did flip his fingers, and he said unto them,
19 Behold, there is a new God come to be over us. For I that know, I have written it. And what I have writ, verily, it is. And it was not.
