THE LANDING. Just the place for a Snark 1 the Bellman cried, As he landed his crew with care ;Supporting each man on tlie top of the tide By a finger entwined in his hair. Just the place for a Snark ! I have said it twiceThat alone should encourage the crew. Just the place for a Snark ! I have said it thrice :What I tell you three times is true. The crew was complete: it included a Boots—■ A maker of Bonnets and Hoods—A Barrister, brought to arrange their disputes—■ And a Broker, to value their goods.

;U??ORTIXG EACH MAX ON THE TOl 01- THE TIDE 136 THE HUNTING OF THE SNARK. A Billiard-marker, whose skill was immense, Might perhaps have won more than his share— But a Banker, engaged at enormous expense,Had the whole of their cash in his care. There was also a Beaver, that paced on the deck, Or would sit making lace in the bow:And had often (the Bellman said) saved them from wreck Though none of the sailors knew how. There was one who was famed for the number of things He forgot when he entered the ship :His umbrella, his watch, all his jewels and rings, And the clothes he had bought for the trip. He had forty-two boxes, all carefully packed, With his name painted clearly on each:But, since he omitted to mention the fact, They were all left behind on the beach. The loss of his clothes hardly mattered, because He had seven coats on when he came,With three pair of boots—but the worst of it was, He had wholly forgotten his name.
