Short. About insignificant titles and the the inequality possible because of them.
A knave and a slave aboard a rudderless ship
To brave the waves of their perilous trip
Ordained by the Brave, who gave the knave his Almighty whip
To maim the slave into an early grave when his heart did quit
Then came the claim "All the same" from the knave in a sinking ship
