Explore "Fertile Lands and Mammoth Cheese" by James McIntyre on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
In barren district you may meet / Small fertile spot doth grow fine wheat, / There you may find the choicest fruits, / And great, round, smooth and solid roots.
But in conditions such as these / You cannot make a mammoth cheese, / Which will weigh eight thousand pounds, / But where large fertile farms abounds.
Big cheese is synonymous name, / With fertile district of the Thame, / Here dairy system's understood, / And they are made both large and good.
