How could a man who has
bread on his table...

:03:29
the needed salt...
:03:31
meat and wine,
tell a story about a hungry man?

:03:36
How could Father
have omitted so much...

:03:40
every time he told that tale?
:03:44
The most powerful
ruler of the Universe...

:03:47
confessed that after much
searching he had just found...

:03:52
a strong spirited man...
:03:55
straight minded...
:03:56
who above all had
the rarest of human virtues:

:04:06
Patience.
:04:11
But before he could compliment
his guest...

:04:14
father didn't mention
that the starving man...

:04:18
with the amazing strength
born of hunger...

:04:22
struck violently the old man
the beautiful white bearded!

:04:36
Lord and master of my laurels...
:04:40
you know I am
your submissive slave...

:04:43
I have sat at your table with you...
:04:45
and shared a banquet of
delicacies fit for a king...

:04:48
to finish off,
I've tasted your many old wines.

:04:56
What else can you expect,
my Lord?

:04:58
The wine has gone to my head.
