// Embed embeds a noun phrase as the object of relative clause with a
// transitive verb.
//
// Argument relPhrase is a phrase with a relative clause, minus the object
// of the clause.  That is, relPhrase consists of a subject, a relative
// pronoun, a transitive verb, possibly a preposition, but then no object.
//
//    func Embed(relPhrase, nounPhrase string) string

// Verse generates a verse of a song with relative clauses that have
// a recursive structure.
//
//    func Verse(subject string, relPhrases []string, nounPhrase string) string
//
// There are different ways to do this of course, but try using Embed as a
// subroutine and using programmatic recursion that reflects the grammatical
// recursion.

// Song generates the full text of "The House That Jack Built".  Oh yes, you
// could just return a string literal, but humor us; use Verse as a subroutine.
//
//    func Song() string
