VARIATIONS OF THE TRICKY LINES

i
when the angel of death comes
may it take the pig rather than the man

ii

may it take the pig in man
and put back the lamb instead

iii

may the angel of death be so kind
when it finally takes the man rather than the pig

iv

may death be a festivity of pigs rather than
those pigs dwelling in the hearts of men

v

may all the lambs soon turn to sheep
and may all good men remain in sheepskin.
