The Sheep You Beat

Even if it doesn’t bleat, The sheep you beat Reacts to the heat, To in the end give you ‘bad meat’ Or everything but a nice treat… Because your own treatment of it wasn’t neat To be kind and tender is a feat; Already in heaven earns you a seat While on earth everyone shall you greet And keep treasuring like US wheat.
