Bards and sages, through the ages
winning fame instead OF wages.
Have mussed up a million pages
with their outcries. small and big,
Singing wrongs that should be righted,
Causes blighted heroes sighted
Yet no song have they indited
To the Pig.
Gentle Porous. suoid mammal
Does the thought that lard and hamn
BE your future, never trammel
Your fond fancies, as you dig?
Does q harrow TO the marrow,
As you pace your quarters narrow,
Dreaming OF the stored glory
OF the Pig?
For time was. ere man got at you,
Using squalid means TO fat you,
That you were 10 be congratu-
Lated on n figure trtg.
And most daintily you ate your
Food, less mingled in it's nature.
Fine of face. fun fair and graceful
Was the Pig
O. S. p. G. A. be gracious;
III your sympathies be spacious
Bar such treatment contumacious-
Teach that 4, is infra dig
For although some genius ftghty
Has described the pen as mighty
You'll admit a sward were filter
For the Pig
