A SelectSmart.com Harry Potter Selector by Glanecia, created April 2002. Oh you may not think me pretty, ~ But don't judge on what you see, ~ I'll eat myself if you can find ~ A smarter hat than me. ~ You can keep your bowlers black, ~ Your top hats sleek and tall, ~ For I'm the Hogwarts Sorting Hat ~ And I can cap them all. ~ There's nothing hidden in your head ~ T ~ he Sorting Hat can't see, ~ So try me on and I will tell you ~ Where you ought to be. ~ You might belong in Gryffindor, ~ Where dwell the brave at heart, ~ Their daring, nerve, and chivalry ~ Set Gryffindors apart; ~ You might belong in Hufflepuff, ~ Where they are just and loyal, ~ Those patient Hufflepuffs are true ~ And unfraid of toil; ~ Or yet in wise old Ravenclaw, ~ If you've a ready mind, ~ Where those of wit and learning, ~ Will always find their kind; ~ Or perhaps in Slytherin ~ You'll make your real friends...
