Ah! behold, it is not the violent man with massive jaw and fist clenched in his pocket who will go there. Lo! this time it is the unhappy man who will go there to perform his task. Upon him has this land been lavished by destiny, upon the one who suffers. The realm of peace and brotherhood will now be fashioned by him, the man of sorrows.



We had to suffer much in this old world.



And you say that there will be no poor there?



Neither poor nor rich. Only one brotherhood of goodness.



But I want to be rich.



And I too.



So do I, if it comes to that.



You will be rich with love.



Would you feed us on love?



We want wealth.
