The sage lectured brilliantly

 The sage lectured brilliantly.
Before him, two images: "Now this one is a devil, And this one is me.
" He turned away.
Then a cunning pupil Changed the positions.
Turned the sage again: "Now this one is a devil, And this one is me.
" The pupils sat, all grinning, And rejoiced in the game.
But the sage was a sage.
