Religion
The Donkey in the Cart to the Horse in the Carriage: VI
From The poetical works of George MacDonald in two volumes — Volume 2
Religion
I told him I was hungry, and to leave one of ten
Would have spoiled my best dinner, the one I wanted then.
Said the cob, "I ought to know the truth about dinners,
I don't eat on roadsides like poor tramping sinners!"
