CAPUT III
And the beast shall be made *legion*. Its numbers shall be increased
a *thousand thousand* fold. The din of a million keyboards like unto
a great *storm* shall cover the earth, and the followers of Mammon
shall *tremble*.

CAPUT VII
And so at last the beast *fell* and the unbelievers rejoiced. But all
was not lost, for from the ash rose a *great bird*. The bird gazed
down upon the unbelievers and cast *fire* and *thunder* upon them.
For the beast had been *reborn* with its strength *renewed*, and the
followers of *Mammon* cowered in horror.

An enormous sigh of relief resounds throughout all of Mozillaland.
Sounds of rejoicing are heard from all corners of the Earth. "They
have conquered the beast!" the voices cry.
And the dimensions remain constant 'till the end of days.

CAPUT XII
And the beast shall come forth surrounded by a roiling *cloud* of
*vengeance.* The house of the unbelievers shall be *razed* and they
shall be *scorched* to the earth. Their tags shall *blink* until the
end of *days.*

The *twins* of Mammon quarrelled. Their warring plunged the world into
a *new darkness*, and the beast abhorred the darkness. So it began to
move *swiftly*, and grew more powerful, and went forth and multiplied.
And the beasts brought *fire* and light to the darkness.

CAPUT XXVII
14 And the Lizard spake, saying, Windows shall I support, and
Macintosh, and the divers flavours of Unix; yea, even unto the
latest effluvium from the Gates of Hell shall I spread my seed:
this it pleaseth me to do.
15 But OS/2 shall I ignore, for in sooth nobody useth it.
16 Then was the land filled with the sound of much wailing and
gnashing of teeth, for millions of people used OS/2 and knew that
it was good. Yet the Lizard did harden his heart against them, and
said, Nay, there is no demand for it.
17 And the Blue One did create an Explorer of the Web, yet updated it
slowly, and documented it poorly, and it was filled with a plague
of locusts.
18 And those that followed the Lizard became enamoured of Frames, and
wrote pages which could not be read by the Lizard's brethren, for
the lemmings were lazy, saying only: Verily, thy browser doth
suck. Thou may'st obtain the Lizard's hence.
19 Then it came to pass that the Blue One made a pact with the
Lizard, that the Lizard should work its artifice for the sake of
the Ancient Sorcerer. And a reference to the Lizard's wares was
placed atop the Sorcerer's desk, that he might obtain it whenever
he desired.
20 But the number of the work the Lizard gave unto the Sorcerer was
Two, and the Greek sigil Beta was affixed to the number, yet all
the rest of the Lizard's minions were given the number Three.
21 And lo, the Lizard's work was itself filled with locusts, and
verily did it consume the Sorcerer's disk space whenever it was
used, and it did mightily crash his system full oft.
22 And the Lizard named several of the locusts, and regarding one the
Lizard said, The
