The Poet Moralizeth - He Discourseth To Those Who Gorge And Complain.
Oh! Kitty Malone--Mrs. Merdle 'tis now-- Was there ever on earth than this, greater folly? Still gorging, while groaning, and swearing a vow, That yours is a case of most sad melancholy. With table that Croesus never had but might covet, You live but to eat and to eat 'cause you love it; And yet while you swallow great sirloins of meat Complain like a beggar of nothing to eat.
