Religion

The Donkey in the Cart to the Horse in the Carriage: IV

by George MacDonald 1824–1905

From The poetical works of George MacDonald in two volumes — Volume 2

Religion

T'other day a bishop's cob stopped before me in a lane,
With a tail as broad as oil-cake, and a close-clipped hoggy mane;
I stood sideways to the hedge, but he did not want to pass,
And he was so full of corn he didn't care about the grass.
