en BEG, v. To ask for something with an earnestness proportioned to the belief that it will not be given.

Who is that, father?

A mendicant, child, Haggard, morose, and unaffable --wild! See how he glares through the bars of his cell! With Citizen Mendicant all is not well.

Why did they put him there, father?
--Because Obeying his belly he struck at the laws.

What's the matter with pie?

With little to wear, he had nothing to sell; To beg was unlawful --improper as well.

Why didn't he work?

He would even have done that, But men said: "Get out!" and the State remarked: "Scat!" I mention these incidents merely to show That the vengeance he took was uncommonly low. Revenge, at the best, is the act of a Siou, But for trifles --

Pray what did bad Mendicant do?

Stole two loaves of bread to replenish his lack And tuck out the belly that clung to his back.

Is that _all_ father dear?

There's little to tell: They sent him to jail, and they'll send him to --well, The company's better than here we can boast, And there's --

Bread for the needy, dear father?
--Um --toast. --Atka Mip

Do not eat it, O jackal, otherwise you will become polluted.
