There once was an old farmer whose horse ran away.
His neighbors offered their sympathy, “How terrible!” they said.
“We’ll see,” responded the farmer.

The next day the horse came back bringing three wild horses.
“How wonderful!” his neighbors exclaimed.
“We’ll see,” responded the farmer.

The following day the farmer’s son broke his leg riding an untamed horse.
“How terrible!” neighbors told him.
“We’ll see,” responded the farmer.

Soon after the boy was drafted, but was ineligible because of his broken leg.
“How wonderful!” his neighbors rejoiced.
“We’ll see.”
