"Don't rain every time de pig squeal!""Come now! Rich-men weep, howling, crying, after their golden robes..."
"Pigs dunno w'at a pen's fer, blunderin' fer der tempory tresur,"
"Their corrosion will be evidence against them, It eats their ...flesh."
"Watch out w'en you'er gittin all you want. Fattenin' hogs aint in luck."
The Southern Plantation Proverbs that answer James 5:1-6 come from:
Botkin, B.A. A Treasury of Southern Folklore New York: Bonanza Books, 1980.
