/ An Hacker there was, one of the finest \
| sort Who controlled the system; |
| graphics was his sport. A manly man, to |
| be a wizard able; Many a protected file |
| he had sitting on his table. His |
| console, when he typed, a man might |
| hear Clicking and feeping wind as |
| clear, Aye, and as loud as does the |
| machine room bell Where my lord Hacker |
| was Prior of the cell. The Rule of good |
| St Savage or St Doeppnor As old and |
| strict he tended to ignore; He let go |
| by the things of yesterday And took the |
| modern world's more spacious way. He |
| did not rate that text as a plucked hen |
| Which says that Hackers are not holy |
| men. And that a hacker underworked is a |
| mere Fish out of water, flapping on the |
| pier. That is to say, a hacker out of |
| his cloister. That was a text he held |
| not worth an oyster. And I agreed and |
| said his views were sound; Was he to |
| study till his head wend round Poring |
| over books in the cloisters? Must he |
| toil As Andy bade and till the very |
| soil? Was he to leave the world upon |
| the shelf? Let Andy have his labor to |
| himself! |
