Abstract

More people eat than dine, probably at a ratio of about 100,000 to 1. Writer Bobby Gentry sings of a family at work in a cotton field, breaking at noon to go home and eat. Never before the author had noticed such a small word dwelt upon so abundantly. For the very sudden brevity of the word, another songwriter might have made it "sit down and eat." The author considered the achievement a large one, and discovered that he was ready to eat, even though he had just had a substantial breakfast.
