By giving respect, they hope to gain self-respect and through self-respect, they gain the respect of others.

—Henry Old Coyote (20th century)

Made glorious by this son of York;
And all the clouds that loured upon our house
In the deep bosom of the ocean buried.”

Full well I served my master for more than seven year,
Till I took up poaching, as you shall quickly hear:
Oh, ‘tis my delight on a shining night, in the season of the year.”
