Fatherland !' </div><div style="margin:10px 0">'Therefore do I wish to be your friend and to make a covenant<br>between you and my people, that ye may be in an hospitable land<br>and in a country of well-wishers. </div><div style="margin:10px 0">'And of your fathers now is none living except one only, who is already old<br>and who is well-inclined toward me ; <br>but he dwelleth far hence in a lonely hut. </div><div style="margin:10px 0">'If ye desire that the friend of your fathers be your leader,<br>I will abide with you and forsake my own people;<br>for ye are the more unfortunate.' </div><div style="margin:10px 0">Yet more that old man said, and they showed<br>him reverence and invited him to their tabernacle. </div><div style="margin:10px 0">And they made a covenant with the people of Siberia,<br>who departed and settled in their snowy villages ;<br>but their king remained with the exiles that he might comfort them. </div><div style="margin:10px 0">And they marvelled at his wisdom, saying<br>'Lo, this he hath surely gotten from our fathers,<br>and his words are from our ancestors.' </div><div style="margin:10px 0">And they called him Shaman, for so the people of Siberia<br>call their kings and priests, who are wizards.</div><div style="margin:10px 0"><br /></a><br />poem by <a href="http://en.citatepedia.ro/by.php?a=Juliusz+Slowacki">Juliusz Slowacki</a><div class=q>
