Famine in Prosperity + 

Two monks upon a field of battle + 

Observed some lean and hungry cattle. + 

Said one: “But little feed is growing + 

Where Death so lately has been mowing.” + 

Replied the other, gravely eying + 

The piles of dead about them lying: + 

“All flesh is grass⁠—I’m quite confounded + 

That cows should starve by hay surrounded.” + 
