-{{script|Complicatio}}: You know me, ma’am, that I uphold <br>
+{{script|Complicatio}}: My division’s damned, by unfunny fate <br>
-Unyokèd idleness in thought and deed and patter <br>
+To live unloved upon the ledger. We are but cost.<br>
-Of he — <br>
+’Tis the rust and stain and curse of clammy gears<br>
-{{script|Nuncle}} — or she. <br>
+That require a ruinous peopling. <br>
-{{Script|Complicatio}} Aye, or she, or they, or xe <br>
+We’ve cut our cloth as best can do<br>
-{{Script|Queen}}: The heavens doth annoint!<br>
+But these myriad needed grunts, though housed in meagre lairs <br>
-{{Script|Nuncle}} Prey tarry not with each declension, sir:<br>
+Kept safe and well away from clientry, are yet a weight.<br>
-Her majesty doth get the point.<br>
+Each speaks the fractious tones of jargoned tongue<br>

+Such patter steep’d, til cup is cold, in leaves of dismal science.<br>
-Engage on divers subject-matters: <br>
+Each a different dismal one, his language apt to smother. <br>
-Yegads, they are inconstant. Oafish! Slow! Inattendery. Oh!
+{{Script|Nuncle}}: We understand them not. Nor do they one other.<br>
+{{Script|Inclusivia}}: “His”?<br>
-<div class="wrap">
+{{script|Complicatio}}: Pray forgiveness, Lady Inclusivia. Hers as well.<br>
-Yet herein will I imitate the sun,
+{{Script|Inclusivia}}: And theirs.<br>
-Who doth permit the base contagious clouds
+{{script|Complicatio}}: Aye, them too. Yea, this is our strife: this bewild’ring ’scape <br>
-To smother up his beauty from the world,
+Of contraptions yoked and tethered as a many gender’d beast —<br>
-That, when he please again to be himself,
+Upon whose discombobulating backs our common fate depends. <br>
-Being wanted, he may be more wonder'd at,
+And, O! Dilemma! The very men who work these chainèd cranks —<br>
-By breaking through the foul and ugly mists305
+{{Script|Inclusivia}}: Men? Just men?<br>
-Of vapours that did seem to strangle him.
+{{script|Complicatio}}: Oh! and women — and those unsure, or curious, or as yet unaligned—<br>
-If all the year were playing holidays,
+{{Script|Queen}}: The heavens doth anoint!<br>
-To sport would be as tedious as to work;
+{{script|Complicatio}}: Milady? <br>
-But when they seldom come, they wish'd for come,
+{{Script|Nuncle}}: Pray, spare your testy conjugation:<br>
-And nothing pleaseth but rare accidents.310
+Their majesty doth get the point.<br>
-So, when this loose behavior I throw off
+{{script|Queen}}: It is a pretty speech so far. But has it any meat?<br>
-And pay the debt I never promised,
+{{script|Inclusivia}}: Or leguminous alternatives.  <br>
-By how much better than my word I am,
+{{script|Complicatio}}: I — we — they — am and are and are obliged.<br>
-By so much shall I falsify men's hopes;
+They whose allied cadence powers our truck —<br>
-And like bright metal on a sullen ground,315
+{{Script|Queen}}: The dismal ones?<br>
-My reformation, glittering o'er my fault,
+{{Script|Complicatio}}:  Aye them, with all their rancour —<br>
-Shall show more goodly and attract more eyes
+By their inevitable heft, they play as weighty anchors.<br>
-Than that which hath no foil to set it off.
+{{Script|Nuncle}}: “Weighty anchors”? None call the Reverend Spooner!<br>
-I'll so offend, to make offence a skill;
+{{Script|Queen}}:  There are ''eighty'' of these dismal scientists? <br>
-Redeeming time when men think least I will.
+{{Script|Nuncle}}: More like eight hundred —<br>
-</div>
+{{script|Complicatio}}: Eager but, yegads, inconstant. Oafish! Fickle! Slow! <br>
+I wouldst speed my rate of stroke, only worser comes with sooner.<br>
+And so, my liege, my battle plan: we set these [[Morlocks]] free.<br>
+{{Script|Queen}}: To do what?<br>
+{{Script|Inclusivia}}: To see out their best and carefree lives, unchained of drudgery.<br>
+Uninjured by liv’d experience: happy, unstress’d — full, fair and abundant. <br>
+{{Script|Nuncle}}: In other words, less gently put, they’ll make the lot [[redundant]].<br>
+{{Script|Complicatio}}: Thus, unbound by work-to-rule, we’ll drive the train<br>
+Around the clock, without relent<br>
+Night; day; rain; hail or shine — e’en upon the Sabbath.<br>
+{{Script|Queen}}: Our crankshafts pedal not themselves, [[Complicatio]].<br>
+You’ve said you’d let your [[subject matter expert|experts]] go, so<br>
+Who shall turn thy grimy wheels, without fault or favour, food or rest?<br>
+{{Script|Complicatio}}: You can hire them by the score in [[Proverbial school-leaver from Bucharest|Bucharest]].<br>
+They are legion: all thifty, keen and swift. <br>
+{{Script|Queen}}: But unpossessed of needed knowhow that, by [[Redundancy|rank and yank]], you sent away?<br>
+{{Script|Complicatio}}: There are certain merchants, Ma’am whose special skill <br>
+Lies in collating squads of fruity youths, fresh harvested from school <br>
+And putting them at our bespoke disposal.<br>
+They bone them up upon our musty [[Playbook|almanacks]] —<br>
+[[Service catalogue]]s, hymn-sheets, psalters, [[Risk taxonomies|taxonomies]] and the like<br>
+And see them train’d, at pace, to keep to and stay upon our message. <br>
+{{Script|Queen}}: What is this “special skill” whereof you speak? <br>
+To coach a bunch of wet-eared boys —<br>
+{{Script|Inclusivia}}:  — and girls, and grades between —<br>
+{{Script|Queen}}: — to outperform our veterans? It sounds to us like sorcery. <br>
+{{Script|Nuncle}}: “Outsourcery”, they call it. An amiable conjury,<br>
+Well-known to bewitch a gawping treasurer.<br>
+{{Script|Complicatio}}: ’Tis more than cheeky sleight of hand, my liege.<br>
+{{Script|Nuncle}}: ’Tis not. You’ll see. The logic’s flimsy.<br>
+{{Script|Complicatio}}: ’Tis tried, tested and pronounced a win<br>
+By no lesser than McKinsey.<br>
