Of Ill Manners
All Men are worth your Observation;
Not all are worth your Imitation.
Hungry Hogs that gorge on Acorns brown,
Look not Up to see Who shook them down.
T HE Pig that wallows in the Mud, anon
Seeks Something Clean to scrape himself upon.
T O him who says Just What He Likes, 'twill fall
To hear Some Things He Doesn't Like at all.
I T was, the Hornet thought, a merry Jest
To Sting — and that was why we Burned the Nest.
