Volume 47, Chapter 10

And estava ProD didst forge the wide Patowmak in search of wisdom and truth.  He left the great Land of Mary and traversed the Way of the Belt, facing many dangers along the gruesome path.  The hardness of the road did not cause him pause, for he wast on a quest.

And estava ProD didst come into the Shire of the Virgins.  It was a vast domain and was strange to his understanding.  There he didst meet a fair maid...much fairer than any he had known before.  His spirit was smitten with her, and he inquired of the natives concerning her.

He didst find that she was called Lady Burch.  She was of a darker hue, a native to the northern regions.  Her skin reflected the sun, and her spirit embraced the wind.  She was untameable, and yet estava ProD didst seek to bring her into his tents.

Lady Burch descended from the Tribe of the Seneca and the lost colony of the Amish.  Such an improbable mixture  caused her to be empathetic to the peculiar life of estava ProD.  Thus estava ProD wast moved to remain in the Shire of the Virgins for lo these many years.
