Animals

I think I raid turn and live with animáis, they are so placid and self coutuin'd; 1 stand and look at them lon and long. Tbey do not sweat and whine about their conditiuu. They do not Me awake in tho dark and weep for tlicir sins, They do not make me sick discussing their duty to God, Not ono ia dissatisfled, not ono is demented with the mania of owning tilines, Not one kneels to another nor to hia kind tliat lived thousands of years ago, Not one Í9 respectablo or unhappy over tho wholu earth.
