Dear Teachers,
could you explain to me the following quote
by Ogden Nash
God in his wisdom made the fly
And then forgot to tell us why.
Many Thanks

Hi Hanygeorge,
So you're reading Ogden Nash. What great reading!
He is granting that God has wisdom and so had a good reason to create the fly (the insect). Then he admits that mankind has never figured out why it was so wise to make them.
Hope that helps. |
