You take no pan but take a pot,

Since I was down now you're distraught,

To help your health I'm to your arm,

Then quickly done I'll do more harm

To hardened hearts but just to pass

The time and troubles with my glass.

'It is fair better to boil in a pot than fry in a pan, and it is indeed to help your health.'
'No, but that may be the most astute comment you've ever made.'
'I like boiled broccoli.'
'Wonderful.'
