When the master
tells the mule to keep working,
if he doesn’t want
to risk the lashes,
the sheep in the pen
remain watching;
And if the mules
try to protest,
the sheep crush them
in the dung,
while the butchers
begin to cut their throats;
But when the sheep
look at the master
thinking to be praised,
they are still
roasted and eaten.
