Living
The Re-echo Club: as by William Wordsworth (Christmas)
From The Re-echo Club
Living
It was the very best of pies,
All plummy, thick and sweet;
A pie of most prodigious size--
And very few to eat.
'Twas passing rich, and few folks know
How rich mince pie can be;
But I have eaten it--and, oh,
The difference to me!
