Explore "Lines on a Hog" by James McIntyre on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
Weighing one thousand pounds, and measuring seven feet nine inches in length.
Pig had to do some routine work, / To make one thousand pounds of pork;
Our stomach it doth not incline, / To eat a hog seven feet nine.
On smaller pig we love to dine, / And it we do enjoy so fine, / For big fat hog we don't repine, / Let others eat enormous swine.
