Chuzzlewit Vi: Wrinkle And Sag

Rating: 4.0


'It's enough to be Charles Dickens
to get a word in a dictionary, '
I thought, seeing 'Ecod',
which was new to me,
but proved to be archaic
for archaic 'Egad', 'Ah God',

and blasphemously humorous for it too,

for a scrotum's a cod,
and thus God
is the ball-and-seed bearing bag
that takes turns at Wrinkle and Sag.
