So Happy & So Alive

 Ovid:
How greatly does a man disgrace himself,
how impiously does he prepare himself
for shedding human blood, who with a knife
cuts the calf's throat and offers a deaf ear
to its death-longings! who can kill the kid
while it is sending forth heart rending cries
like those of a dear child; or who can feed
upon the bird which he has given food.
How little do such deeds as these fall short
of actual murder? Yes, where will they lead?
Calves playing in a YouTube video, so happy to be alive.
