He nodded, smiling wryly.  “We are as clowns, but who better than a clown to know the difference between wisdom and foolishness?”  After a little more banter about fools and clowns, the Harlequin turned more serious.  “But if I may, I would ask a question of my fate.  Will it be done before or after?” “Before or after what?” “Your triumph or your failure, of course.” “We’ll see.” He nodded politely.</blockquote>
