ANCIENT JAPANESE CARVING 716. B.C.
The THREE WISE MONKEYS
OF NIPPON.
SPEAK
NO EVIL.
NO EVIL.
HEAR
NO EVIL.
O'er the door of the sacred Temple
They sit in their wisdom the three-
The little deaf Monkey,
The little dumb Monkey,
The Monkey who will not see;
With their eyes shut to evil,
Ears that hear only the right,
Lips that are dumb to scandal,
They sit in their silent might.
