Did you ever, ever, ever See a codfish who was clever? Or a dolphin dance a hornpipe on his tail? Or a flounder play at skittles? Or a pig that left his vittles? Or a porpoise sit and whistle on a rail? Or a double-breasted badger? Or a really starving cadger? Or a hermit who lives happily on roots - One who daily feeds and fattens? Or a pelican in pattens? Or an ostrich in knee breeches and top boots?

Or a rosy-visaged baker? A white-hatted undertaker? Or a cap that wouldn't fit a dozen boys? Or a pea-green dromedary? Or a quiet cock canary? Or a cobbler who all his time employs? Or a jackdaw pass a spangle? Or an oyster turn a mangle? Or a cabman knocking gently at a door? If you've had your attention Drawn to half the things I mention, You've seen what never has been seen before.
