No references found | Peter's vision of unclean animals is an excellent illustration of the psychology of disgust and recapitulates this entire essay. In the Vale of Clwyd they took the shape of little black pigs, according to Victorian folklorist Elias Owen, who quotes this rhyme in Old Welsh: Hwch ddu gwtta, Ar ben pob camdda, Yn nyddu ac yn gardio, Pob Glan Gaua (A short-tailed black sow, On every stile, Spinning and carding, Each All Hallows Eve) Pigs were considered unclean animals, the eating of their flesh forbidden in the Old Testament book of Leviticus. Dear editor, It seems somehow appropriate that immediately after I had read the very sad article about the self-described "Anglican Communion in Canada" (Church property at heart of new battle, May), the lectionary featured the story of Peter's vision of clean and unclean animals which led to the baptism of Cornelius. |
