Something funny (not really) someone told me recently
Of the five ancient Patriarchs, only one can fix his roof without permission.

Three Mitres for the Greek bishops under the Ottomon Yoke Seven for the Slavic Lands in their temples of wood, Nine for the Abbots of Athos, doomed to obey, One for the Arab on his dark throne In the Land of Antioch where the Shadows lie. One Spirit to rule them all, One Despot to find them, One Staff to bring them all and in the darkness bind them In the Land of Antioch where the Shadows lie.

Seven for the Slavic Lands in their temples of wood,
Nine for the Abbots of Athos, doomed to obey,
One for the Arab on his dark throne
In the Land of Antioch where the Shadows lie.
One Spirit to rule them all, One Despot to find them,
One Staff to bring them all and in the darkness bind them
In the Land of Antioch where the Shadows lie.
