Ode to Lipoxeny!  It's cold--Eat fat to keep warm! It's cold--Eat oxlip stew!  It's cold, Do what the animals do to conserve energy! It's cold--Or copy the plants!  Speak softly--limit your words! Move carefully! Repair your car! Be contrite! Kiss strangers!  And if you prove unlucky, If you are a stranger to fat, Use a good glue on your coffin, one with strong bonds. Be buried by your lord and children, who will inherit your fat to keep warm!
