As God liveth, the Nazarene!
How was this done?
THE BEGGAR.
Rabboni, he put clay
Upon mine eyes; I washed, and now I see.
PHARISEES. When did he this?
THE BEGGAR.

That hath restored thy sight?
THE BEGGAR.
He is a Prophet.
A JEW. This is a wonderful story, but not true, A beggar's fiction. He was not born blind, And never has been blind!
OTHERS.

Ask them.
