Before the fall.

Adam made a humming noise when he slept -

the sound was in edenized pitch and harmony.

It sounded like a butterfly song.

Eve liked it.


After the fall.

Adam made a noise like the snort of a wart hog when sleeping.

Eve didn't like the noise so she called it a snort, at first -

then she shortened it to

snor.

That's probably how snore got its name.


The further removed from Eden

Adam became -

the more recurrent his wart hog dream.


When Adam snored

the canines

howled.



Adam always had

excellent rapport

with the animals.
