Quote #7 on Ecological Struggle Quotes >> Animal Rights and Human Oppression
“Where slaughter'd beasts lie quivering, pile on pile,
And bare-armed fleshers, bathed in bloody dew,
Ply hard their ghastly trade, and hack and hew,
And mock sweet Mercy's name, yet loathe the while
The Lot that chains them to this service vile.”
