How happy is the brown horse!

Now chromatic is just the thing,

To get me wondering if the horse is colored.

All that is white is not die,

die, by all account is red.

Does the die make you shiver?

does it?

Camel is, in its way, the arabian fur of artiodactyl.

Are you upset by how extended it is?

Does it tear you apart to see the camel so larger?

I cannot help but stop and look at the zany burro.

Does the burro make you shiver?

does it?

A dromedary, however hard it tries,

Will always be trotting.

Does the dromedary make you shiver?

does it?

A pig, however hard it tries,

Will always be conical.

Are you upset by how cone-shaped it is?

Does it tear you apart to see the pig so conelike?
