+THE DONG WITH A LUMINOUS NOSE.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+    When awful darkness and silence reign
+    Over the great Gromboolian plain,
+        Through the long, long wintry nights;
+    When the angry breakers roar
+    As they beat on the rocky shore;
+        When Storm-clouds brood on the towering heights
+    Of the Hills of the Chankly Bore,--
+
+    Then, through the vast and gloomy dark
+    There moves what seems a fiery spark,--
+        A lonely spark with silvery rays
+        Piercing the coal-black night,--
+        A Meteor strange and bright:
+    Hither and thither the vision strays,
+        A single lurid light.
+
+    Slowly it wanders, pauses, creeps,--
+    Anon it sparkles, flashes, and leaps;
+    And ever as onward it gleaming goes
+    A light on the Bong-tree stems it throws.
+    And those who watch at that midnight hour
+    From Hall or Terrace or lofty Tower,
+    Cry, as the wild light passes along,--
+       "The Dong! the Dong!
+      The wandering Dong through the forest goes!
+        The Dong! the Dong!
+      The Dong with a luminous Nose!"
+
+        Long years ago
+      The Dong was happy and gay,
+    Till he fell in love with a Jumbly Girl
+      Who came to those shores one day.
+    For the Jumblies came in a sieve, they did,--
+    Landing at eve near the Zemmery Fidd
+        Where the Oblong Oysters grow,
+      And the rocks are smooth and gray.
+    And all the woods and the valleys rang
+    With the Chorus they daily and nightly sang,--
+        "_Far and few, far and few,
+          Are the lands where the Jumblies live;
+          Their heads are green, and their hands are blue,
+          And they went to sea in a sieve._"
+
+    Happily, happily passed those days!
+      While the cheerful Jumblies staid;
+        They danced in circlets all night long,
+        To the plaintive pipe of the lively Dong,
+      In moonlight, shine, or shade.
+    For day and night he was always there
+    By the side of the Jumbly Girl so fair,
+    With her sky-blue hands and her sea-green hair;
+    Till the morning came of that hateful day
+    When the Jumblies sailed in their sieve away,
+    And the Dong was left on the cruel shore
+    Gazing, gazing for evermore,--
+    Ever keeping his weary eyes on
+    That pea-green sail on the far horizon,--
+    Singing the Jumbly Chorus still
+    As he sate all day on the grassy hill,--
+        "_Far and few, far and few,
+          Are the lands where the Jumblies live;
+          Their heads are green, and their hands are blue,
+          And they went to sea in a sieve_."
+
+    But when the sun was low in the West,
+        The Dong arose and said,--
+    "What little sense I once possessed
+        Has quite gone out of my head!"
+    And since that day he wanders still
+    By lake and forest, marsh and hill,
+    Singing, "O somewhere, in valley or plain,
+    Might I find my Jumbly Girl again!
+    For ever I'll seek by lake and shore
+    Till I find my Jumbly Girl once more!"
+
+        Playing a pipe with silvery squeaks,
+        Since then his Jumbly Girl he seeks;
+        And because by night he could not see,
+        He gathered the bark of the Twangum Tree
+          On the flowery plain that grows.
+          And he wove him a wondrous Nose,--
+        A Nose as strange as a Nose could be!
+
+    Of vast proportions and painted red,
+    And tied with cords to the back of his head.
+        In a hollow rounded space it ended
+        With a luminous Lamp within suspended,
+            All fenced about
+            With a bandage stout
+            To prevent the wind from blowing it out;
+        And with holes all round to send the light
+        In gleaming rays on the dismal night
+
+    And now each night, and all night long,
+    Over those plains still roams the Dong;
+    And above the wail of the Chimp and Snipe
+    You may hear the squeak of his plaintive pipe,
+    While ever he seeks, but seeks in vain,
+    To meet with his Jumbly Girl again;
+    Lonely and wild, all night he goes,--
+    The Dong with a luminous Nose!
+    And all who watch at the midnight hour,
+    From Hall or Terrace or lofty Tower,
+    Cry, as they trace the Meteor bright,
+    Moving along through the dreary night,--
+       "This is the hour when forth he goes,
+        The Dong with a luminous Nose!
+        Yonder, over the plain he goes,--
+            He goes!
+            He goes,--
+        The Dong with a luminous Nose!"
+
+
+
+
+THE TWO OLD BACHELORS.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+Two old Bachelors were living in one house;
+One caught a Muffin, the other caught a Mouse.
+Said he who caught the Muffin to him who caught the Mouse,--
+"This happens just in time! For we've nothing in the house,
+Save a tiny slice of lemon and a teaspoonful of honey,
+And what to do for dinner--since we haven't any money?
+And what can we expect if we haven't any dinner,
+But to lose our teeth and eyelashes and keep on growing thinner?"
+
+Said he who caught the Mouse to him who caught the Muffin,--
+"We might cook this little Mouse, if we only had some Stuffin'!
+If we had but Sage and Onion we could do extremely well;
+But how to get that Stuffin' it is difficult to tell!"
+
+Those two old Bachelors ran quickly to the town
+And asked for Sage and Onion as they wandered up and down;
+They borrowed two large Onions, but no Sage was to be found
+In the Shops, or in the Market, or in all the Gardens round.
+
+But some one said, "A hill there is, a little to the north,
+And to its purpledicular top a narrow way leads forth;
+And there among the rugged rocks abides an ancient Sage,--
+An earnest Man, who reads all day a most perplexing page.
+Climb up, and seize him by the toes,--all studious as he sits,--
+And pull him down, and chop him into endless little bits!
+Then mix him with your Onion (cut up likewise into Scraps),--
+When your Stuffin' will be ready, and very good--perhaps."
+
+Those two old Bachelors without loss of time
+The nearly purpledicular crags at once began to climb;
+And at the top, among the rocks, all seated in a nook,
+They saw that Sage a-reading of a most enormous book.
+
+"You earnest Sage!" aloud they cried, "your book you've read enough in!
+We wish to chop you into bits to mix you into Stuffin'!"
+
+But that old Sage looked calmly up, and with his awful book,
+At those two Bachelors' bald heads a certain aim he took;
+And over Crag and precipice they rolled promiscuous down,--
+At once they rolled, and never stopped in lane or field or town;
+And when they reached their house, they found (besides their want
+                                                          of Stuffin'),
+The Mouse had fled--and, previously, had eaten up the Muffin.
+
+They left their home in silence by the once convivial door;
+And from that hour those Bachelors were never heard of more.
+
+
+[Illustration: Sheet Music--The Pelicans]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+THE PELICAN CHORUS.
+
+    King and Queen of the Pelicans we;
+     No other Birds so grand we see!
+    None but we have feet like fins!
+    With lovely leathery throats and chins!
+        Ploffskin, Pluffskin, Pelican jee!
+        We think no Birds so happy as we!
+        Plumpskin, Ploshkin, Pelican Jill!
+        We think so then, and we thought so still
+
+    We live on the Nile. The Nile we love.
+    By night we sleep on the cliffs above;
+    By day we fish, and at eve we stand
+    On long bare islands of yellow sand.
+    And when the sun sinks slowly down,
+    And the great rock walls grow dark and brown,
+
+    Where the purple river rolls fast and dim
+    And the Ivory Ibis starlike skim,
+    Wing to wing we dance around,
+    Stamping our feet with a flumpy sound,
+    Opening our mouths as Pelicans ought;
+    And this is the song we nightly snort,--
+        Ploffskin, Pluffskin, Pelican jee!
+        We think no Birds so happy as we!
+        Plumpskin, Ploshkin, Pelican jill!
+        We think so then, and we thought so still!
+
+    Last year came out our Daughter Dell,
+    And all the Birds received her well.
+    To do her honor a feast we made
+    For every bird that can swim or wade,--
+    Herons and Gulls, and Cormorants black,
+    Cranes, and Flamingoes with scarlet back,
+    Plovers and Storks, and Geese in clouds,
+    Swans and Dilberry Ducks in crowds:
+    Thousands of Birds in wondrous flight!
+    They ate and drank and danced all night,
+    And echoing back from the rocks you heard
+    Multitude-echoes from Bird and Bird,--
+        Ploffskin, Pluffskin, Pelican jee!
+        We think no Birds so happy as we!
+        Plumpskin, Ploshkin, Pelican jill!
+        We think so then, and we thought so still!
+
+    Yes, they came; and among the rest
+    The King of the Cranes all grandly dressed.
+    Such a lovely tail! Its feathers float
+    Between the ends of his blue dress-coat;
+    With pea-green trowsers all so neat,
+    And a delicate frill to hide his feet
+    (For though no one speaks of it, every one knows
+    He has got no webs between his toes).
+
+    As soon as he saw our Daughter Dell,
+    In violent love that Crane King fell,--
+    On seeing her waddling form so fair,
+    With a wreath of shrimps in her short white hair.
+    And before the end of the next long day
+    Our Dell had given her heart away;
+    For the King of the Cranes had won that heart
+    With a Crocodile's egg and a large fish-tart.
+    She vowed to marry the King of the Cranes,
+    Leaving the Nile for stranger plains;
+    And away they flew in a gathering crowd
+    Of endless birds in a lengthening cloud.
+        Ploffskin, Pluffskin, Pelican jee!
+        We think no Birds so happy as we!
+        Plumpskin, Ploshkin, Pelican jill!
+        We think so then, and we thought so still!
+
+    And far away in the twilight sky
+    We heard them singing a lessening cry,--
+    Farther and farther, till out of sight,
+    And we stood alone in the silent night!
+    Often since, in the nights of June,
+    We sit on the sand and watch the moon,--
+
+    She has gone to the great Gromboolian Plain,
+    And we probably never shall meet again!
+    Oft, in the long still nights of June,
+    We sit on the rocks and watch the moon,--
+    She dwells by the streams of the Chankly Bore.
+    And we probably never shall see her more.
+        Ploffskin, Pluffskin, Pelican jee!
+        We think no Birds so happy as we!
+        Plumpskin, Ploshkin, Pelican jill!
+        We think so then, and we thought so still!

+
+THE COURTSHIP OF THE YONGHY-BONGHY-BÃ’.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+                    I.
+
+    On the Coast of Coromandel
+        Where the early pumpkins blow,
+          In the middle of the woods
+      Lived the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò.
+    Two old chairs, and half a candle,
+    One old jug without a handle,--
+          These were all his worldly goods:
+          In the middle of the woods,
+          These were all the worldly goods
+      Of the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò,
+      Of the Yonghy-Bonghy Bò.
+
+
+                    II.
+
+    Once, among the Bong-trees walking
+        Where the early pumpkins blow,
+          To a little heap of stones
+      Came the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò.
+    There he heard a Lady talking,
+    To some milk-white Hens of Dorking,--
+        "'Tis the Lady Jingly Jones!
+          On that little heap of stones
+          Sits the Lady Jingly Jones!"
+      Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò,
+      Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò.
+
+
+                    III.
+
+   "Lady Jingly! Lady Jingly!
+         Sitting where the pumpkins blow,
+           Will you come and be my wife?"
+       Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò.
+   "I am tired of living singly--
+    On this coast so wild and shingly,--
+          I'm a-weary of my life;
+          If you'll come and be my wife,
+          Quite serene would be my life!"
+      Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò,
+      Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò.
+
+
+                    IV.
+
+    "On this Coast of Coromandel
+         Shrimps and watercresses grow,
+           Prawns are plentiful and cheap,"
+       Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò.
+   "You shall have my chairs and candle,
+    And my jug without a handle!
+          Gaze upon the rolling deep
+         (Fish is plentiful and cheap);
+          As the sea, my love is deep!"
+      Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò,
+      Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò.
+
+
+                    V.
+
+    Lady Jingly answered sadly,
+         And her tears began to flow,--
+          "Your proposal comes too late,
+       Mr. Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò!
+    I would be your wife most gladly!"
+    (Here she twirled her fingers madly,)
+         "But in England I've a mate!
+          Yes! you've asked me far too late,
+          For in England I've a mate,
+      Mr. Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò!
+      Mr. Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò!
+
+
+                    VI.
+
+   "Mr. Jones (his name is Handel,--
+         Handel Jones, Esquire, & Co.)
+           Dorking fowls delights to send,
+       Mr. Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò!
+    Keep, oh, keep your chairs and candle,
+    And your jug without a handle,--
+          I can merely be your friend!
+          Should my Jones more Dorkings send,
+          I will give you three, my friend!
+      Mr. Yonghy-Bongy-Bò!
+      Mr. Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò!
+
+
+                    VII.
+
+   "Though you've such a tiny body,
+         And your head so large doth grow,--
+           Though your hat may blow away,
+       Mr. Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò!
+    Though you're such a Hoddy Doddy,
+    Yet I wish that I could modi-
+          fy the words I needs must say!
+          Will you please to go away?
+          That is all I have to say,
+      Mr. Yongby-Bonghy-Bò!
+      Mr. Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò!"
+
+
+                    VIII.
+
+    Down the slippery slopes of Myrtle,
+        Where the early pumpkins blow,
+          To the calm and silent sea
+       Fled the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò.
+    There, beyond the Bay of Gurtle,
+    Lay a large and lively Turtle.
+         "You're the Cove," he said, "for me;
+          On your back beyond the sea,
+          Turtle, you shall carry me!"
+      Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò,
+      Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò.
+
+              [Illustration]
+
+
+                    IX.
+
+    Through the silent-roaring ocean
+        Did the Turtle swiftly go;
+          Holding fast upon his shell
+      Rode the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò.
+    With a sad primaeval motion
+    Towards the sunset isles of Boshen
+          Still the Turtle bore him well.
+          Holding fast upon his shell,
+         "Lady Jingly Jones, farewell!"
+      Sang the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò,
+      Sang the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò.
+
+
+                    X.
+
+    From the Coast of Coromandel
+        Did that Lady never go;
+          On that heap of stones she mourns
+      For the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò.
+    On that Coast of Coromandel,
+    In his jug without a handle
+        Still she weeps, and daily moans;
+        On that little heap of stones
+        To her Dorking Hens she moans,
+          For the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò,
+          For the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò.
+
+
+
+
+THE POBBLE WHO HAS NO TOES.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+                    I.
+
+    The Pobble who has no toes
+        Had once as many as we;
+    When they said, "Some day you may lose them all;"
+        He replied, "Fish fiddle de-dee!"
+    And his Aunt Jobiska made him drink
+    Lavender water tinged with pink;
+    For she said, "The World in general knows
+    There's nothing so good for a Pobble's toes!"
+
+
+                    II.
+
+    The Pobble who has no toes,
+        Swam across the Bristol Channel;
+    But before he set out he wrapped his nose
+        In a piece of scarlet flannel.
+    For his Aunt Jobiska said, "No harm
+    Can come to his toes if his nose is warm;
+    And it's perfectly known that a Pobble's toes
+    Are safe--provided he minds his nose."
+
+
+                    III.
+
+    The Pobble swam fast and well,
+        And when boats or ships came near him,
+    He tinkledy-binkledy-winkled a bell
+        So that all the world could hear him.
+    And all the Sailors and Admirals cried,
+    When they saw him nearing the further side,--
+   "He has gone to fish, for his Aunt Jobiska's
+    Runcible Cat with crimson whiskers!"
+
+
+                    IV.
+
+    But before he touched the shore,--
+        The shore of the Bristol Channel,
+    A sea-green Porpoise carried away
+        His wrapper of scarlet flannel.
+    And when he came to observe his feet,
+    Formerly garnished with toes so neat,
+    His face at once became forlorn
+    On perceiving that all his toes were gone!
+
+
+                    V.
+
+    And nobody ever knew,
+        From that dark day to the present,
+    Whoso had taken the Pobble's toes,
+        In a manner so far from pleasant.
+    Whether the shrimps or crawfish gray,
+    Or crafty Mermaids stole them away,
+    Nobody knew; and nobody knows
+    How the Pobble was robbed of his twice five toes!
+
+
+                    VI.
+
+    The Pobble who has no toes
+        Was placed in a friendly Bark,
+    And they rowed him back, and carried him up
+        To his Aunt Jobiska's Park.
+    And she made him a feast, at his earnest wish,
+    Of eggs and buttercups fried with fish;
+    And she said, "It's a fact the whole world knows,
+    That Pobbles are happier without their toes."
+
+
+
+
+THE NEW VESTMENTS.
+
+    There lived an old man in the Kingdom of Tess,
+    Who invented a purely original dress;
+    And when it was perfectly made and complete,
+    He opened the door and walked into the street.
+
+    By way of a hat he'd a loaf of Brown Bread,
+    In the middle of which he inserted his head;
+    His Shirt was made up of no end of dead Mice,
+    The warmth of whose skins was quite fluffy and nice;
+    His Drawers were of Rabbit-skins, so were his Shoes;
+    His Stockings were skins, but it is not known whose;
+    His Waistcoat and Trowsers were made of Pork Chops;
+    His Buttons were Jujubes and Chocolate Drops;
+    His Coat was all Pancakes, with Jam for a border,
+    And a girdle of Biscuits to keep it in order;
+    And he wore over all, as a screen from bad weather,
+    A Cloak of green Cabbage-leaves stitched all together.
+
+    He had walked a short way, when he heard a great noise,
+    Of all sorts of Beasticles, Birdlings, and Boys;
+    And from every long street and dark lane in the town
+    Beasts, Birdies, and Boys in a tumult rushed down.
+    Two Cows and a Calf ate his Cabbage-leaf Cloak;
+    Four Apes seized his Girdle, which vanished like smoke;
+    Three Kids ate up half of his Pancaky Coat,
+    And the tails were devour'd by an ancient He Goat;
+    An army of Dogs in a twinkling tore _up_ his
+    Pork Waistcoat and Trowsers to give to their Puppies;
+    And while they were growling, and mumbling the Chops,
+    Ten Boys prigged the Jujubes and Chocolate Drops.
+    He tried to run back to his house, but in vain,
+    For scores of fat Pigs came again and again:
+    They rushed out of stables and hovels and doors;
+    They tore off his stockings, his shoes, and his drawers;
+    And now from the housetops with screechings descend
+    Striped, spotted, white, black, and gray Cats without end:
+    They jumped on his shoulders and knocked off his hat,
+    When Crows, Ducks, and Hens made a mincemeat of that;
+    They speedily flew at his sleeves in a trice,
+    And utterly tore up his Shirt of dead Mice;
+    They swallowed the last of his Shirt with a squall,--
+    Whereon he ran home with no clothes on at all.
+
+    And he said to himself, as he bolted the door,
+   "I will not wear a similar dress any more,
+    Any more, any more, any more, never more!"
+
+
+
+
+MR. AND MRS. DISCOBBOLOS.
+
+                    I.
+
+    Mr. and Mrs. Discobbolos
+        Climbed to the top of a wall.
+      And they sate to watch the sunset sky,
+      And to hear the Nupiter Piffkin cry,
+        And the Biscuit Buffalo call.
+    They took up a roll and some Camomile tea,
+    And both were as happy as happy could be,
+            Till Mrs. Discobbolos said,--
+           "Oh! W! X! Y! Z!
+            It has just come into my head,
+      Suppose we should happen to fall!!!!!
+                        Darling Mr. Discobbolos!
+
+
+                    II.
+
+   "Suppose we should fall down flumpetty,
+        Just like pieces of stone,
+      On to the thorns, or into the moat,
+      What would become of your new green coat?
+        And might you not break a bone?
+    It never occurred to me before,
+    That perhaps we shall never go down any more!"
+            And Mrs. Discobbolos said,
+           "Oh! W! X! Y! Z!
+            What put it into your head
+      To climb up this wall, my own
+                        Darling Mr. Discobbolos?"
+
+
+                    III.
+
+    Mr. Discobbolos answered,
+       "At first it gave me pain,
+      And I felt my ears turn perfectly pink
+      When your exclamation made me think
+        We might never get down again!
+    But now I believe it is wiser far
+    To remain for ever just where we are."
+            And Mr. Discobbolos said,
+           "Oh! W! X! Y! Z!
+            It has just come into my head
+      We shall never go down again,
+                        Dearest Mrs. Discobbolos!"
+
+
+                    IV.
+
+    So Mr. and Mrs. Discobbolos
+        Stood up and began to sing,--
+     "Far away from hurry and strife
+      Here we will pass the rest of life,
+        Ding a dong, ding dong, ding!
+    We want no knives nor forks nor chairs,
+    No tables nor carpets nor household cares;
+            From worry of life we've fled;
+            Oh! W! X! Y! Z!
+            There is no more trouble ahead,
+      Sorrow or any such thing,
+                        For Mr. and Mrs. Discobbolos!"
+
+
+
+
+THE QUANGLE WANGLE'S HAT.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+                    I.
+
+    On the top of the Crumpetty Tree
+        The Quangle Wangle sat,
+    But his face you could not see,
+        On account of his Beaver Hat.
+    For his Hat was a hundred and two feet wide,
+    With ribbons and bibbons on every side,
+    And bells, and buttons, and loops, and lace,
+    So that nobody ever could see the face
+            Of the Quangle Wangle Quee.
+
+
+                    II.
+
+    The Quangle Wangle said
+        To himself on the Crumpetty Tree,
+    "Jam, and jelly, and bread
+        Are the best of food for me!
+    But the longer I live on this Crumpetty Tree
+    The plainer than ever it seems to me
+    That very few people come this way
+    And that life on the whole is far from gay!"
+            Said the Quangle Wangle Quee.
+
+
+                    III.
+
+    But there came to the Crumpetty Tree
+        Mr. and Mrs. Canary;
+    And they said, "Did ever you see
+        Any spot so charmingly airy?
+    May we build a nest on your lovely Hat?
+    Mr. Quangle Wangle, grant us that!
+    O please let us come and build a nest
+    Of whatever material suits you best,
+            Mr. Quangle Wangle Quee!"
+
+
+                    IV.
+
+    And besides, to the Crumpetty Tree
+        Came the Stork, the Duck, and the Owl;
+    The Snail and the Bumble-Bee,
+        The Frog and the Fimble Fowl
+    (The Fimble Fowl, with a Corkscrew leg);
+    And all of them said, "We humbly beg
+    We may build our homes on your lovely Hat,--
+    Mr. Quangle Wangle, grant us that!
+       Mr. Quangle Wangle Quee!"
+
+
+                    V.
+
+    And the Golden Grouse came there,
+        And the Pobble who has no toes,
+    And the small Olympian bear,
+        And the Dong with a luminous nose.
+    And the Blue Baboon who played the flute,
+    And the Orient Calf from the Land of Tute,
+    And the Attery Squash, and the Bisky Bat,--
+    All came and built on the lovely Hat
+      Of the Quangle Wangle Quee.
+
+                    VI.
+
+    And the Quangle Wangle said
+        To himself on the Crumpetty Tree,
+    "When all these creatures move
+        What a wonderful noise there'll be!"
+    And at night by the light of the Mulberry moon
+    They danced to the Flute of the Blue Baboon,
+    On the broad green leaves of the Crumpetty Tree,
+    And all were as happy as happy could be,
+      With the Quangle Wangle Quee.
+

+
+
+THE CUMMERBUND.
+An Indian Poem.
+
+                    I.
+
+She sate upon her Dobie,
+    To watch the Evening Star,
+And all the Punkahs, as they passed,
+    Cried, "My! how fair you are!"
+Around her bower, with quivering leaves,
+    The tall Kamsamahs grew,
+And Kitmutgars in wild festoons
+    Hung down from Tchokis blue.
+
+
+                    II.
+
+Below her home the river rolled
+    With soft meloobious sound,
+Where golden-finned Chuprassies swam,
+    In myriads circling round.
+Above, on tallest trees remote
+    Green Ayahs perched alone,
+And all night long the Mussak moan'd
+    Its melancholy tone.
+
+
+                    III.
+
+And where the purple Nullahs threw
+    Their branches far and wide,
+And silvery Goreewallahs flew
+    In silence, side by side,
+The little Bheesties' twittering cry
+    Rose on the flagrant air,
+And oft the angry Jampan howled
+    Deep in his hateful lair.
+
+
+                    IV.
+
+She sate upon her Dobie,
+    She heard the Nimmak hum,
+When all at once a cry arose,
+    "The Cummerbund is come!"
+In vain she fled: with open jaws
+    The angry monster followed,
+And so (before assistance came)
+    That Lady Fair was swollowed.
+
+
+                    V.
+
+They sought in vain for even a bone
+    Respectfully to bury;
+They said, "Hers was a dreadful fate!"
+    (And Echo answered, "Very.")
+They nailed her Dobie to the wall,
+    Where last her form was seen,
+And underneath they wrote these words,
+    In yellow, blue, and green:
+"Beware, ye Fair! Ye Fair, beware!
+    Nor sit out late at night,
+Lest horrid Cummerbunds should come,
+    And swollow you outright."

+
+                     N
+
+               [Illustration]
+
+    N was a Nut that grew
+        High up upon a tree;
+    Papa, who could not reach it, said,
+        "That's _much_ too high for me!"
+
+
+                     O
+
+               [Illustration]
+
+    O was an Owl who flew
+        All in the dark away,
+    Papa said, "What an owl you are!
+        Why don't you fly by day?"
+
+                     P
+
+               [Illustration]
+
+    P was a little Pig,
+        Went out to take a walk;
+    Papa he said, "If Piggy dead,
+        He'd all turn into Pork!"
+
+
+                     Q
+
+               [Illustration]
+
+    Q was a Quince that hung
+        Upon a garden tree;
+    Papa he brought it with him home,
+        And ate it with his tea.
+
+
+                     R
+
+               [Illustration]
+
+    R was a Railway Rug
+        Extremely large and warm;
+    Papa he wrapped it round his head,
+        In a most dreadful storm.
+
+
+                     S
+
+               [Illustration]
+
+    S was Papa's new Stick,
+        Papa's new thumping Stick,
+    To thump extremely wicked boys,
+        Because it was so thick.
+
+
+                     T
+
+               [Illustration]
+
+    T was a tumbler full
+        Of Punch all hot and good;
+    Papa he drank it up, when in
+        The middle of a wood.
+
+
+                     U
+
+               [Illustration]
+
+    U was a silver urn,
+        Full of hot scalding water;
+    Papa said, "If that Urn were mine,
+        I'd give it to my daughter!"
+
+
+                     V
+
+               [Illustration]
+
+    V was a Villain; once
+        He stole a piece of beef.
+    Papa he said, "Oh, dreadful man!
+        That Villain is a Thief!"
+
+
+                     W
+
+               [Illustration]
+
+    W was a Watch of Gold:
+        It told the time of day,
+    So that Papa knew when to come,
+        And when to go away.
+
+
+                     X
+
+               [Illustration]
+
+    X was King Xerxes, whom
+        Papa much wished to know;
+    But this he could not do, because
+        Xerxes died long ago.
+
+
+                     Y
+
+               [Illustration]
+
+    Y was a Youth, who kicked
+        And screamed and cried like mad;
+    Papa he said, "Your conduct is
+        Abominably bad!"
+
+
+                     Z
+
+               [Illustration]
+
+    Z was a Zebra striped
+        And streaked with lines of black;
+    Papa said once, he thought he'd like
+        A ride upon his back.

+THE DONG WITH A LUMINOUS NOSE.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+    When awful darkness and silence reign
+    Over the great Gromboolian plain,
+        Through the long, long wintry nights;
+    When the angry breakers roar
+    As they beat on the rocky shore;
+        When Storm-clouds brood on the towering heights
+    Of the Hills of the Chankly Bore,--
+
+    Then, through the vast and gloomy dark
+    There moves what seems a fiery spark,--
+        A lonely spark with silvery rays
+        Piercing the coal-black night,--
+        A Meteor strange and bright:
+    Hither and thither the vision strays,
+        A single lurid light.
+
+    Slowly it wanders, pauses, creeps,--
+    Anon it sparkles, flashes, and leaps;
+    And ever as onward it gleaming goes
+    A light on the Bong-tree stems it throws.
+    And those who watch at that midnight hour
+    From Hall or Terrace or lofty Tower,
+    Cry, as the wild light passes along,--
+       "The Dong! the Dong!
+      The wandering Dong through the forest goes!
+        The Dong! the Dong!
+      The Dong with a luminous Nose!"
+
+        Long years ago
+      The Dong was happy and gay,
+    Till he fell in love with a Jumbly Girl
+      Who came to those shores one day.
+    For the Jumblies came in a sieve, they did,--
+    Landing at eve near the Zemmery Fidd
+        Where the Oblong Oysters grow,
+      And the rocks are smooth and gray.
+    And all the woods and the valleys rang
+    With the Chorus they daily and nightly sang,--
+        "_Far and few, far and few,
+          Are the lands where the Jumblies live;
+          Their heads are green, and their hands are blue,
+          And they went to sea in a sieve._"
+
+    Happily, happily passed those days!
+      While the cheerful Jumblies staid;
+        They danced in circlets all night long,
+        To the plaintive pipe of the lively Dong,
+      In moonlight, shine, or shade.
+    For day and night he was always there
+    By the side of the Jumbly Girl so fair,
+    With her sky-blue hands and her sea-green hair;
+    Till the morning came of that hateful day
+    When the Jumblies sailed in their sieve away,
+    And the Dong was left on the cruel shore
+    Gazing, gazing for evermore,--
+    Ever keeping his weary eyes on
+    That pea-green sail on the far horizon,--
+    Singing the Jumbly Chorus still
+    As he sate all day on the grassy hill,--
+        "_Far and few, far and few,
+          Are the lands where the Jumblies live;
+          Their heads are green, and their hands are blue,
+          And they went to sea in a sieve_."
+
+    But when the sun was low in the West,
+        The Dong arose and said,--
+    "What little sense I once possessed
+        Has quite gone out of my head!"
+    And since that day he wanders still
+    By lake and forest, marsh and hill,
+    Singing, "O somewhere, in valley or plain,
+    Might I find my Jumbly Girl again!
+    For ever I'll seek by lake and shore
+    Till I find my Jumbly Girl once more!"
+
+        Playing a pipe with silvery squeaks,
+        Since then his Jumbly Girl he seeks;
+        And because by night he could not see,
+        He gathered the bark of the Twangum Tree
+          On the flowery plain that grows.
+          And he wove him a wondrous Nose,--
+        A Nose as strange as a Nose could be!
+
+    Of vast proportions and painted red,
+    And tied with cords to the back of his head.
+        In a hollow rounded space it ended
+        With a luminous Lamp within suspended,
+            All fenced about
+            With a bandage stout
+            To prevent the wind from blowing it out;
+        And with holes all round to send the light
+        In gleaming rays on the dismal night
+
+    And now each night, and all night long,
+    Over those plains still roams the Dong;
+    And above the wail of the Chimp and Snipe
+    You may hear the squeak of his plaintive pipe,
+    While ever he seeks, but seeks in vain,
+    To meet with his Jumbly Girl again;
+    Lonely and wild, all night he goes,--
+    The Dong with a luminous Nose!
+    And all who watch at the midnight hour,
+    From Hall or Terrace or lofty Tower,
+    Cry, as they trace the Meteor bright,
+    Moving along through the dreary night,--
+       "This is the hour when forth he goes,
+        The Dong with a luminous Nose!
+        Yonder, over the plain he goes,--
+            He goes!
+            He goes,--
+        The Dong with a luminous Nose!"
+
+
+
+
+THE TWO OLD BACHELORS.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+Two old Bachelors were living in one house;
+One caught a Muffin, the other caught a Mouse.
+Said he who caught the Muffin to him who caught the Mouse,--
+"This happens just in time! For we've nothing in the house,
+Save a tiny slice of lemon and a teaspoonful of honey,
+And what to do for dinner--since we haven't any money?
+And what can we expect if we haven't any dinner,
+But to lose our teeth and eyelashes and keep on growing thinner?"
+
+Said he who caught the Mouse to him who caught the Muffin,--
+"We might cook this little Mouse, if we only had some Stuffin'!
+If we had but Sage and Onion we could do extremely well;
+But how to get that Stuffin' it is difficult to tell!"
+
+Those two old Bachelors ran quickly to the town
+And asked for Sage and Onion as they wandered up and down;
+They borrowed two large Onions, but no Sage was to be found
+In the Shops, or in the Market, or in all the Gardens round.
+
+But some one said, "A hill there is, a little to the north,
+And to its purpledicular top a narrow way leads forth;
+And there among the rugged rocks abides an ancient Sage,--
+An earnest Man, who reads all day a most perplexing page.
+Climb up, and seize him by the toes,--all studious as he sits,--
+And pull him down, and chop him into endless little bits!
+Then mix him with your Onion (cut up likewise into Scraps),--
+When your Stuffin' will be ready, and very good--perhaps."
+
+Those two old Bachelors without loss of time
+The nearly purpledicular crags at once began to climb;
+And at the top, among the rocks, all seated in a nook,
+They saw that Sage a-reading of a most enormous book.
+
+"You earnest Sage!" aloud they cried, "your book you've read enough in!
+We wish to chop you into bits to mix you into Stuffin'!"
+
+But that old Sage looked calmly up, and with his awful book,
+At those two Bachelors' bald heads a certain aim he took;
+And over Crag and precipice they rolled promiscuous down,--
+At once they rolled, and never stopped in lane or field or town;
+And when they reached their house, they found (besides their want
+                                                          of Stuffin'),
+The Mouse had fled--and, previously, had eaten up the Muffin.
+
+They left their home in silence by the once convivial door;
+And from that hour those Bachelors were never heard of more.
+
+
+[Illustration: Sheet Music--The Pelicans]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+THE PELICAN CHORUS.
+
+    King and Queen of the Pelicans we;
+     No other Birds so grand we see!
+    None but we have feet like fins!
+    With lovely leathery throats and chins!
+        Ploffskin, Pluffskin, Pelican jee!
+        We think no Birds so happy as we!
+        Plumpskin, Ploshkin, Pelican Jill!
+        We think so then, and we thought so still
+
+    We live on the Nile. The Nile we love.
+    By night we sleep on the cliffs above;
+    By day we fish, and at eve we stand
+    On long bare islands of yellow sand.
+    And when the sun sinks slowly down,
+    And the great rock walls grow dark and brown,
+
+    Where the purple river rolls fast and dim
+    And the Ivory Ibis starlike skim,
+    Wing to wing we dance around,
+    Stamping our feet with a flumpy sound,
+    Opening our mouths as Pelicans ought;
+    And this is the song we nightly snort,--
+        Ploffskin, Pluffskin, Pelican jee!
+        We think no Birds so happy as we!
+        Plumpskin, Ploshkin, Pelican jill!
+        We think so then, and we thought so still!
+
+    Last year came out our Daughter Dell,
+    And all the Birds received her well.
+    To do her honor a feast we made
+    For every bird that can swim or wade,--
+    Herons and Gulls, and Cormorants black,
+    Cranes, and Flamingoes with scarlet back,
+    Plovers and Storks, and Geese in clouds,
+    Swans and Dilberry Ducks in crowds:
+    Thousands of Birds in wondrous flight!
+    They ate and drank and danced all night,
+    And echoing back from the rocks you heard
+    Multitude-echoes from Bird and Bird,--
+        Ploffskin, Pluffskin, Pelican jee!
+        We think no Birds so happy as we!
+        Plumpskin, Ploshkin, Pelican jill!
+        We think so then, and we thought so still!
+
+    Yes, they came; and among the rest
+    The King of the Cranes all grandly dressed.
+    Such a lovely tail! Its feathers float
+    Between the ends of his blue dress-coat;
+    With pea-green trowsers all so neat,
+    And a delicate frill to hide his feet
+    (For though no one speaks of it, every one knows
+    He has got no webs between his toes).
+
+    As soon as he saw our Daughter Dell,
+    In violent love that Crane King fell,--
+    On seeing her waddling form so fair,
+    With a wreath of shrimps in her short white hair.
+    And before the end of the next long day
+    Our Dell had given her heart away;
+    For the King of the Cranes had won that heart
+    With a Crocodile's egg and a large fish-tart.
+    She vowed to marry the King of the Cranes,
+    Leaving the Nile for stranger plains;
+    And away they flew in a gathering crowd
+    Of endless birds in a lengthening cloud.
+        Ploffskin, Pluffskin, Pelican jee!
+        We think no Birds so happy as we!
+        Plumpskin, Ploshkin, Pelican jill!
+        We think so then, and we thought so still!
+
+    And far away in the twilight sky
+    We heard them singing a lessening cry,--
+    Farther and farther, till out of sight,
+    And we stood alone in the silent night!
+    Often since, in the nights of June,
+    We sit on the sand and watch the moon,--
+
+    She has gone to the great Gromboolian Plain,
+    And we probably never shall meet again!
+    Oft, in the long still nights of June,
+    We sit on the rocks and watch the moon,--
+    She dwells by the streams of the Chankly Bore.
+    And we probably never shall see her more.
+        Ploffskin, Pluffskin, Pelican jee!
+        We think no Birds so happy as we!
+        Plumpskin, Ploshkin, Pelican jill!
+        We think so then, and we thought so still!

+THE COURTSHIP OF THE YONGHY-BONGHY-BÒ.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+                    I.
+
+    On the Coast of Coromandel
+        Where the early pumpkins blow,
+          In the middle of the woods
+      Lived the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò.
+    Two old chairs, and half a candle,
+    One old jug without a handle,--
+          These were all his worldly goods:
+          In the middle of the woods,
+          These were all the worldly goods
+      Of the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò,
+      Of the Yonghy-Bonghy Bò.
+
+
+                    II.
+
+    Once, among the Bong-trees walking
+        Where the early pumpkins blow,
+          To a little heap of stones
+      Came the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò.
+    There he heard a Lady talking,
+    To some milk-white Hens of Dorking,--
+        "'Tis the Lady Jingly Jones!
+          On that little heap of stones
+          Sits the Lady Jingly Jones!"
+      Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò,
+      Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò.
+
+
+                    III.
+
+   "Lady Jingly! Lady Jingly!
+         Sitting where the pumpkins blow,
+           Will you come and be my wife?"
+       Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò.
+   "I am tired of living singly--
+    On this coast so wild and shingly,--
+          I'm a-weary of my life;
+          If you'll come and be my wife,
+          Quite serene would be my life!"
+      Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò,
+      Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò.
+
+
+                    IV.
+
+    "On this Coast of Coromandel
+         Shrimps and watercresses grow,
+           Prawns are plentiful and cheap,"
+       Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò.
+   "You shall have my chairs and candle,
+    And my jug without a handle!
+          Gaze upon the rolling deep
+         (Fish is plentiful and cheap);
+          As the sea, my love is deep!"
+      Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò,
+      Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò.
+
+
+                    V.
+
+    Lady Jingly answered sadly,
+         And her tears began to flow,--
+          "Your proposal comes too late,
+       Mr. Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò!
+    I would be your wife most gladly!"
+    (Here she twirled her fingers madly,)
+         "But in England I've a mate!
+          Yes! you've asked me far too late,
+          For in England I've a mate,
+      Mr. Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò!
+      Mr. Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò!
+
+
+                    VI.
+
+   "Mr. Jones (his name is Handel,--
+         Handel Jones, Esquire, & Co.)
+           Dorking fowls delights to send,
+       Mr. Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò!
+    Keep, oh, keep your chairs and candle,
+    And your jug without a handle,--
+          I can merely be your friend!
+          Should my Jones more Dorkings send,
+          I will give you three, my friend!
+      Mr. Yonghy-Bongy-Bò!
+      Mr. Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò!
+
+
+                    VII.
+
+   "Though you've such a tiny body,
+         And your head so large doth grow,--
+           Though your hat may blow away,
+       Mr. Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò!
+    Though you're such a Hoddy Doddy,
+    Yet I wish that I could modi-
+          fy the words I needs must say!
+          Will you please to go away?
+          That is all I have to say,
+      Mr. Yongby-Bonghy-Bò!
+      Mr. Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò!"
+
+
+                    VIII.
+
+    Down the slippery slopes of Myrtle,
+        Where the early pumpkins blow,
+          To the calm and silent sea
+       Fled the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò.
+    There, beyond the Bay of Gurtle,
+    Lay a large and lively Turtle.
+         "You're the Cove," he said, "for me;
+          On your back beyond the sea,
+          Turtle, you shall carry me!"
+      Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò,
+      Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò.
+
+              [Illustration]
+
+
+                    IX.
+
+    Through the silent-roaring ocean
+        Did the Turtle swiftly go;
+          Holding fast upon his shell
+      Rode the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò.
+    With a sad primaeval motion
+    Towards the sunset isles of Boshen
+          Still the Turtle bore him well.
+          Holding fast upon his shell,
+         "Lady Jingly Jones, farewell!"
+      Sang the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò,
+      Sang the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò.
+
+
+                    X.
+
+    From the Coast of Coromandel
+        Did that Lady never go;
+          On that heap of stones she mourns
+      For the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò.
+    On that Coast of Coromandel,
+    In his jug without a handle
+        Still she weeps, and daily moans;
+        On that little heap of stones
+        To her Dorking Hens she moans,
+          For the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò,
+          For the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò.

+
+
+THE POBBLE WHO HAS NO TOES.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+                    I.
+
+    The Pobble who has no toes
+        Had once as many as we;
+    When they said, "Some day you may lose them all;"
+        He replied, "Fish fiddle de-dee!"
+    And his Aunt Jobiska made him drink
+    Lavender water tinged with pink;
+    For she said, "The World in general knows
+    There's nothing so good for a Pobble's toes!"
+
+
+                    II.
+
+    The Pobble who has no toes,
+        Swam across the Bristol Channel;
+    But before he set out he wrapped his nose
+        In a piece of scarlet flannel.
+    For his Aunt Jobiska said, "No harm
+    Can come to his toes if his nose is warm;
+    And it's perfectly known that a Pobble's toes
+    Are safe--provided he minds his nose."
+
+
+                    III.
+
+    The Pobble swam fast and well,
+        And when boats or ships came near him,
+    He tinkledy-binkledy-winkled a bell
+        So that all the world could hear him.
+    And all the Sailors and Admirals cried,
+    When they saw him nearing the further side,--
+   "He has gone to fish, for his Aunt Jobiska's
+    Runcible Cat with crimson whiskers!"
+
+
+                    IV.
+
+    But before he touched the shore,--
+        The shore of the Bristol Channel,
+    A sea-green Porpoise carried away
+        His wrapper of scarlet flannel.
+    And when he came to observe his feet,
+    Formerly garnished with toes so neat,
+    His face at once became forlorn
+    On perceiving that all his toes were gone!
+
+
+                    V.
+
+    And nobody ever knew,
+        From that dark day to the present,
+    Whoso had taken the Pobble's toes,
+        In a manner so far from pleasant.
+    Whether the shrimps or crawfish gray,
+    Or crafty Mermaids stole them away,
+    Nobody knew; and nobody knows
+    How the Pobble was robbed of his twice five toes!
+
+
+                    VI.
+
+    The Pobble who has no toes
+        Was placed in a friendly Bark,
+    And they rowed him back, and carried him up
+        To his Aunt Jobiska's Park.
+    And she made him a feast, at his earnest wish,
+    Of eggs and buttercups fried with fish;
+    And she said, "It's a fact the whole world knows,
+    That Pobbles are happier without their toes."
+
+
+
+
+THE NEW VESTMENTS.
+
+    There lived an old man in the Kingdom of Tess,
+    Who invented a purely original dress;
+    And when it was perfectly made and complete,
+    He opened the door and walked into the street.
+
+    By way of a hat he'd a loaf of Brown Bread,
+    In the middle of which he inserted his head;
+    His Shirt was made up of no end of dead Mice,
+    The warmth of whose skins was quite fluffy and nice;
+    His Drawers were of Rabbit-skins, so were his Shoes;
+    His Stockings were skins, but it is not known whose;
+    His Waistcoat and Trowsers were made of Pork Chops;
+    His Buttons were Jujubes and Chocolate Drops;
+    His Coat was all Pancakes, with Jam for a border,
+    And a girdle of Biscuits to keep it in order;
+    And he wore over all, as a screen from bad weather,
+    A Cloak of green Cabbage-leaves stitched all together.
+
+    He had walked a short way, when he heard a great noise,
+    Of all sorts of Beasticles, Birdlings, and Boys;
+    And from every long street and dark lane in the town
+    Beasts, Birdies, and Boys in a tumult rushed down.
+    Two Cows and a Calf ate his Cabbage-leaf Cloak;
+    Four Apes seized his Girdle, which vanished like smoke;
+    Three Kids ate up half of his Pancaky Coat,
+    And the tails were devour'd by an ancient He Goat;
+    An army of Dogs in a twinkling tore _up_ his
+    Pork Waistcoat and Trowsers to give to their Puppies;
+    And while they were growling, and mumbling the Chops,
+    Ten Boys prigged the Jujubes and Chocolate Drops.
+    He tried to run back to his house, but in vain,
+    For scores of fat Pigs came again and again:
+    They rushed out of stables and hovels and doors;
+    They tore off his stockings, his shoes, and his drawers;
+    And now from the housetops with screechings descend
+    Striped, spotted, white, black, and gray Cats without end:
+    They jumped on his shoulders and knocked off his hat,
+    When Crows, Ducks, and Hens made a mincemeat of that;
+    They speedily flew at his sleeves in a trice,
+    And utterly tore up his Shirt of dead Mice;
+    They swallowed the last of his Shirt with a squall,--
+    Whereon he ran home with no clothes on at all.
+
+    And he said to himself, as he bolted the door,
+   "I will not wear a similar dress any more,
+    Any more, any more, any more, never more!"
+
+
+
+
+MR. AND MRS. DISCOBBOLOS.
+
+                    I.
+
+    Mr. and Mrs. Discobbolos
+        Climbed to the top of a wall.
+      And they sate to watch the sunset sky,
+      And to hear the Nupiter Piffkin cry,
+        And the Biscuit Buffalo call.
+    They took up a roll and some Camomile tea,
+    And both were as happy as happy could be,
+            Till Mrs. Discobbolos said,--
+           "Oh! W! X! Y! Z!
+            It has just come into my head,
+      Suppose we should happen to fall!!!!!
+                        Darling Mr. Discobbolos!
+
+
+                    II.
+
+   "Suppose we should fall down flumpetty,
+        Just like pieces of stone,
+      On to the thorns, or into the moat,
+      What would become of your new green coat?
+        And might you not break a bone?
+    It never occurred to me before,
+    That perhaps we shall never go down any more!"
+            And Mrs. Discobbolos said,
+           "Oh! W! X! Y! Z!
+            What put it into your head
+      To climb up this wall, my own
+                        Darling Mr. Discobbolos?"
+
+
+                    III.
+
+    Mr. Discobbolos answered,
+       "At first it gave me pain,
+      And I felt my ears turn perfectly pink
+      When your exclamation made me think
+        We might never get down again!
+    But now I believe it is wiser far
+    To remain for ever just where we are."
+            And Mr. Discobbolos said,
+           "Oh! W! X! Y! Z!
+            It has just come into my head
+      We shall never go down again,
+                        Dearest Mrs. Discobbolos!"
+
+
+                    IV.
+
+    So Mr. and Mrs. Discobbolos
+        Stood up and began to sing,--
+     "Far away from hurry and strife
+      Here we will pass the rest of life,
+        Ding a dong, ding dong, ding!
+    We want no knives nor forks nor chairs,
+    No tables nor carpets nor household cares;
+            From worry of life we've fled;
+            Oh! W! X! Y! Z!
+            There is no more trouble ahead,
+      Sorrow or any such thing,
+                        For Mr. and Mrs. Discobbolos!"
+
+
+
+
+THE QUANGLE WANGLE'S HAT.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+                    I.
+
+    On the top of the Crumpetty Tree
+        The Quangle Wangle sat,
+    But his face you could not see,
+        On account of his Beaver Hat.
+    For his Hat was a hundred and two feet wide,
+    With ribbons and bibbons on every side,
+    And bells, and buttons, and loops, and lace,
+    So that nobody ever could see the face
+            Of the Quangle Wangle Quee.
+
+
+                    II.
+
+    The Quangle Wangle said
+        To himself on the Crumpetty Tree,
+    "Jam, and jelly, and bread
+        Are the best of food for me!
+    But the longer I live on this Crumpetty Tree
+    The plainer than ever it seems to me
+    That very few people come this way
+    And that life on the whole is far from gay!"
+            Said the Quangle Wangle Quee.
+
+
+                    III.
+
+    But there came to the Crumpetty Tree
+        Mr. and Mrs. Canary;
+    And they said, "Did ever you see
+        Any spot so charmingly airy?
+    May we build a nest on your lovely Hat?
+    Mr. Quangle Wangle, grant us that!
+    O please let us come and build a nest
+    Of whatever material suits you best,
+            Mr. Quangle Wangle Quee!"
+
+
+                    IV.
+
+    And besides, to the Crumpetty Tree
+        Came the Stork, the Duck, and the Owl;
+    The Snail and the Bumble-Bee,
+        The Frog and the Fimble Fowl
+    (The Fimble Fowl, with a Corkscrew leg);
+    And all of them said, "We humbly beg
+    We may build our homes on your lovely Hat,--
+    Mr. Quangle Wangle, grant us that!
+       Mr. Quangle Wangle Quee!"
+
+
+                    V.
+
+    And the Golden Grouse came there,
+        And the Pobble who has no toes,
+    And the small Olympian bear,
+        And the Dong with a luminous nose.
+    And the Blue Baboon who played the flute,
+    And the Orient Calf from the Land of Tute,
+    And the Attery Squash, and the Bisky Bat,--
+    All came and built on the lovely Hat
+      Of the Quangle Wangle Quee.
+
+                    VI.
+
+    And the Quangle Wangle said
+        To himself on the Crumpetty Tree,
+    "When all these creatures move
+        What a wonderful noise there'll be!"
+    And at night by the light of the Mulberry moon
+    They danced to the Flute of the Blue Baboon,
+    On the broad green leaves of the Crumpetty Tree,
+    And all were as happy as happy could be,
+      With the Quangle Wangle Quee.

+
+THE CUMMERBUND.
+An Indian Poem.
+
+                    I.
+
+She sate upon her Dobie,
+    To watch the Evening Star,
+And all the Punkahs, as they passed,
+    Cried, "My! how fair you are!"
+Around her bower, with quivering leaves,
+    The tall Kamsamahs grew,
+And Kitmutgars in wild festoons
+    Hung down from Tchokis blue.
+
+
+                    II.
+
+Below her home the river rolled
+    With soft meloobious sound,
+Where golden-finned Chuprassies swam,
+    In myriads circling round.
+Above, on tallest trees remote
+    Green Ayahs perched alone,
+And all night long the Mussak moan'd
+    Its melancholy tone.
+
+
+                    III.
+
+And where the purple Nullahs threw
+    Their branches far and wide,
+And silvery Goreewallahs flew
+    In silence, side by side,
+The little Bheesties' twittering cry
+    Rose on the flagrant air,
+And oft the angry Jampan howled
+    Deep in his hateful lair.
+
+
+                    IV.
+
+She sate upon her Dobie,
+    She heard the Nimmak hum,
+When all at once a cry arose,
+    "The Cummerbund is come!"
+In vain she fled: with open jaws
+    The angry monster followed,
+And so (before assistance came)
+    That Lady Fair was swollowed.
+
+
+                    V.
+
+They sought in vain for even a bone
+    Respectfully to bury;
+They said, "Hers was a dreadful fate!"
+    (And Echo answered, "Very.")
+They nailed her Dobie to the wall,
+    Where last her form was seen,
+And underneath they wrote these words,
+    In yellow, blue, and green:
+"Beware, ye Fair! Ye Fair, beware!
+    Nor sit out late at night,
+Lest horrid Cummerbunds should come,
+    And swollow you outright."

+
+Section  2.  Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers.  It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come.  In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at https://www.gutenberg.org/fundraising/pglaf.
+
+
+Section 3.  Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive
+Foundation

+The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non profit
+501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
+state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
+Revenue Service.  The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification
+number is 64-6221541.  Contributions to the Project Gutenberg

+
+Section 4.  Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment.  Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States.  Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements.  We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance.  To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit https://www.gutenberg.org/fundraising/donate
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States.  U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses.  Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including including checks, online payments and credit card
+donations.  To donate, please visit:
+https://www.gutenberg.org/fundraising/donate
+
+
+Section 5.  General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone.  For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included.  Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+     https://www.gutenberg.org
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.

+				<h3>THE DONG WITH A LUMINOUS NOSE.</h3>
+				<p>
+				<span class="largecap">W</span>hen awful darkness and silence reign<br />
+				Over the great Gromboolian plain,<br />
+				<span class="i2">Through the long, long wintry nights;</span>
+				When the angry breakers roar<br />
+				As they beat on the rocky shore;<br />
+				<span class="i2">When Storm-clouds brood on the towering heights</span>
+				Of the Hills of the Chankly Bore,&#8212;
+				</p>
+				<p>
+				Then, through the vast and gloomy dark<br />
+				There moves what seems a fiery spark,&#8212;<br />
+				<span class="i2">A lonely spark with silvery rays</span>
+				<a class="pagenumber" name="page342" id="page342" title="342"></a>
+				<span class="i4">Piercing the coal-black night,&#8212;</span>
+				<span class="i4">A Meteor strange and bright:</span>
+				<span class="i2">Hither and thither the vision strays,</span>
+				<span class="i4">A single lurid light.</span>
+				</p>
+				<p>
+				Slowly it wanders, pauses, creeps,&#8212;<br />
+				Anon it sparkles, flashes, and leaps;<br />
+				And ever as onward it gleaming goes<br />
+				A light on the Bong-tree stems it throws.<br />
+				And those who watch at that midnight hour<br />
+				From Hall or Terrace or lofty Tower,<br />
+				Cry, as the wild light passes along,&#8212;<br />
+				<span class="i4">"The Dong! the Dong!</span>
+				<span class="i2">The wandering Dong through the forest goes!</span>
+				<span class="i4">The Dong! the Dong!</span>
+				<span class="i2">The Dong with a luminous Nose!"</span>
+				</p>
+				<p>
+				<span class="i4">Long years ago</span>
+				<span class="i2">The Dong was happy and gay,</span>
+				Till he fell in love with a Jumbly Girl<br />
+				<span class="i2">Who came to those shores one day.</span>
+				For the Jumblies came in a sieve, they did,&#8212;<br />
+				Landing at eve near the Zemmery Fidd<br />
+				<span class="i4">Where the Oblong Oysters grow,</span>
+				<span class="i2">And the rocks are smooth and gray.</span>
+				And all the woods and the valleys rang<br />
+				With the Chorus they daily and nightly sang,&#8212;<br />
+				<i><span class="i6">"Far and few, far and few,</span>
+				<span class="i6">Are the lands where the Jumblies live;</span>
+				<span class="i6">Their heads are green, and their hands are blue,</span>
+				<span class="i6">And they went to sea in a sieve."</span></i>
+				</p>
+				<p>
+				<a class="pagenumber" name="page343" id="page343" title="343"></a>
+				Happily, happily passed those days!<br />
+				<span class="i8">While the cheerful Jumblies staid;</span>
+				<span class="i4">They danced in circlets all night long,</span>
+				<span class="i4">To the plaintive pipe of the lively Dong,</span>
+				<span class="i8">In moonlight, shine, or shade.</span>
+				For day and night he was always there<br />
+				By the side of the Jumbly Girl so fair,<br />
+				With her sky-blue hands and her sea-green hair;<br />
+				Till the morning came of that hateful day<br />
+				When the Jumblies sailed in their sieve away,<br />
+				And the Dong was left on the cruel shore<br />
+				Gazing, gazing for evermore,&#8212;<br />
+				Ever keeping his weary eyes on<br />
+				That pea-green sail on the far horizon,&#8212;<br />
+				Singing the Jumbly Chorus still<br />
+				As he sate all day on the grassy hill,&#8212;<br />
+				<i><span class="i10">"Far and few, far and few,</span>
+				<span class="i10">Are the lands where the Jumblies live;</span>
+				<span class="i10">Their heads are green, and their hands are blue,</span>
+				<span class="i10">And they went to sea in a sieve."</span></i>
+				</p>
+				<p>
+				But when the sun was low in the West,<br />
+				<span class="i4">The Dong arose and said,&#8212;</span>
+				&#8212;"What little sense I once possessed<br />
+				<span class="i4">Has quite gone out of my head!"</span>
+				And since that day he wanders still<br />
+				By lake and forest, marsh and hill,<br />
+				Singing, "O somewhere, in valley or plain,<br />
+				Might I find my Jumbly Girl again!<br />
+				For ever I'll seek by lake and shore<br />
+				Till I find my Jumbly Girl once more!"
+				<a class="pagenumber" name="page344" id="page344" title="344"></a>
+				</p>
+				<p>
+				<span class="i2">Playing a pipe with silvery squeaks,</span>
+				<span class="i2">Since then his Jumbly Girl he seeks;</span>
+				<span class="i2">And because by night he could not see,</span>
+				<span class="i2">He gathered the bark of the Twangum Tree</span>
+				<span class="i4">On the flowery plain that grows.</span>
+				<span class="i4">And he wove him a wondrous Nose,&#8212;</span>
+				<span class="i2">A Nose as strange as a Nose could be!</span>
+				Of vast proportions and painted red,<br />
+				And tied with cords to the back of his head.<br />
+				<span class="i2">&#8212;In a hollow rounded space it ended</span>
+				<span class="i2">With a luminous Lamp within suspended,</span>
+				<span class="i4">All fenced about</span>
+				<span class="i4">With a bandage stout</span>
+				<span class="i4">To prevent the wind from blowing it out;</span>
+				<span class="i2">And with holes all round to send the light</span>
+				<span class="i2">In gleaming rays on the dismal night</span>
+				</p>
+				<p>
+				And now each night, and all night long,<br />
+				Over those plains still roams the Dong;<br />
+				And above the wail of the Chimp and Snipe<br />
+				You may hear the squeak of his plaintive pipe,<br />
+				While ever he seeks, but seeks in vain,<br />
+				To meet with his Jumbly Girl again;<br />
+				Lonely and wild, all night he goes,&#8212;<br />
+				The Dong with a luminous Nose!<br />
+				And all who watch at the midnight hour,<br />
+				From Hall or Terrace or lofty Tower,<br />
+				Cry, as they trace the Meteor bright,<br />
+				Moving along through the dreary night,&#8212;<br />
+				<a class="pagenumber" name="page345" id="page345" title="345"></a>
+				<span class="i2">"This is the hour when forth he goes,</span>
+				<span class="i2">The Dong with a luminous Nose!</span>
+				<span class="i2">Yonder, over the plain he goes,&#8212;</span>
+				<span class="i4">He goes!</span>
+				<span class="i4">He goes,&#8212;</span>

+				"We might cook this little Mouse, if we only had some Stuffin'!<br />
+				If we had but Sage and Onion we could do extremely well;<br />
+				But how to get that Stuffin' it is difficult to tell!"
+				</p>
+				<p>
+				Those two old Bachelors ran quickly to the town<br />
+				And asked for Sage and Onion as they wandered up and down;<br />
+				<a class="pagenumber" name="page347" id="page347" title="347"></a>
+				They borrowed two large Onions, but no Sage was to be found<br />
+				In the Shops, or in the Market, or in all the Gardens round.
+				</p>
+				<p>
+				But some one said, "A hill there is, a little to the north,<br />
+				And to its purpledicular top a narrow way leads forth;<br />
+				And there among the rugged rocks abides an ancient Sage,&#8212;<br />
+				An earnest Man, who reads all day a most perplexing page.<br />
+				Climb up, and seize him by the toes,&#8212;all studious as he sits,&#8212;<br />
+				And pull him down, and chop him into endless little bits!<br />
+				Then mix him with your Onion (cut up likewise into Scraps),&#8212;<br />
+				When your Stuffin' will be ready, and very good&#8212;perhaps."
+				</p>
+				<p>
+				Those two old Bachelors without loss of time<br />
+				The nearly purpledicular crags at once began to climb;<br />
+				And at the top, among the rocks, all seated in a nook,<br />
+				They saw that Sage a-reading of a most enormous book.
+				</p>
+				<p>
+				"You earnest Sage!" aloud they cried, "your book you've read enough in!<br />
+				We wish to chop you into bits to mix you into Stuffin'!"
+				</p>
+				<p>
+				But that old Sage looked calmly up, and with his awful book,<br />
+				At those two Bachelors' bald heads a certain aim he took;<br />
+				And over Crag and precipice they rolled promiscuous down,&#8212;<br />
+				At once they rolled, and never stopped in lane or field or town;<br />
+				And when they reached their house, they found (besides their want of Stuffin'),<br />
+				The Mouse had fled&#8212;and, previously, had eaten up the Muffin.
+				</p>
+				<p>
+				They left their home in silence by the once convivial door;<br />
+				And from that hour those Bachelors were never heard of more.

+				<span class="largecap">K</span>ing and Queen of the Pelicans we;<br />
+				No other Birds so grand we see!<br />
+				None but we have feet like fins!<br />
+				With lovely leathery throats and chins!<br />
+				<span class="i2">Ploffskin, Pluffskin, Pelican jee!</span>
+				<span class="i2">We think no Birds so happy as we!</span>
+				<span class="i2">Plumpskin, Ploshkin, Pelican Jill!</span>
+				<span class="i2">We think so then, and we thought so still</span>
+				</p>
+				<p>
+				We live on the Nile. The Nile we love.<br />
+				By night we sleep on the cliffs above;<br />
+				By day we fish, and at eve we stand<br />
+				On long bare islands of yellow sand.<br />
+				And when the sun sinks slowly down,<br />
+				And the great rock walls grow dark and brown,<br />
+				<a class="pagenumber" name="page350" id="page350" title="350"></a>
+				Where the purple river rolls fast and dim<br />
+				And the Ivory Ibis starlike skim,<br />
+				Wing to wing we dance around,<br />
+				Stamping our feet with a flumpy sound,<br />
+				Opening our mouths as Pelicans ought;<br />
+				And this is the song we nightly snort,&#8212;<br />
+				<span class="i4">Ploffskin, Pluffskin, Pelican jee!</span>
+				<span class="i4">We think no Birds so happy as we!</span>
+				<span class="i4">Plumpskin, Ploshkin, Pelican jill!</span>
+				<span class="i4">We think so then, and we thought so still!</span>
+				</p>
+				<p>
+				Last year came out our Daughter Dell,<br />
+				And all the Birds received her well.<br />
+				To do her honor a feast we made<br />
+				For every bird that can swim or wade,&#8212;<br />
+				Herons and Gulls, and Cormorants black,<br />
+				Cranes, and Flamingoes with scarlet back,<br />
+				Plovers and Storks, and Geese in clouds,<br />
+				Swans and Dilberry Ducks in crowds:<br />
+				Thousands of Birds in wondrous flight!<br />
+				They ate and drank and danced all night,<br />
+				And echoing back from the rocks you heard<br />
+				Multitude-echoes from Bird and Bird,&#8212;<br />
+				<span class="i4">Ploffskin, Pluffskin, Pelican jee!</span>
+				<span class="i4">We think no Birds so happy as we!</span>
+				<span class="i4">Plumpskin, Ploshkin, Pelican jill!</span>
+				<span class="i4">We think so then, and we thought so still!</span>
+				</p>
+				<p>
+				Yes, they came; and among the rest<br />
+				The King of the Cranes all grandly dressed.<br />
+				<a class="pagenumber" name="page351" id="page351" title="351"></a>
+				Such a lovely tail! Its feathers float<br />
+				Between the ends of his blue dress-coat;<br />
+				With pea-green trowsers all so neat,<br />
+				And a delicate frill to hide his feet<br />
+				(For though no one speaks of it, every one knows<br />
+				He has got no webs between his toes).<br />
+				</p>
+				<p>
+				As soon as he saw our Daughter Dell,<br />
+				In violent love that Crane King fell,&#8212;<br />
+				On seeing her waddling form so fair,<br />
+				With a wreath of shrimps in her short white hair.<br />
+				And before the end of the next long day<br />
+				Our Dell had given her heart away;<br />
+				For the King of the Cranes had won that heart<br />
+				With a Crocodile's egg and a large fish-tart.<br />
+				She vowed to marry the King of the Cranes,<br />
+				Leaving the Nile for stranger plains;<br />
+				And away they flew in a gathering crowd<br />
+				Of endless birds in a lengthening cloud.<br />
+				<span class="i4">Ploffskin, Pluffskin, Pelican jee!</span>
+				<span class="i4">We think no Birds so happy as we!</span>
+				<span class="i4">Plumpskin, Ploshkin, Pelican jill!</span>
+				<span class="i4">We think so then, and we thought so still!</span>
+				</p>
+				<p>
+				And far away in the twilight sky<br />
+				We heard them singing a lessening cry,&#8212;<br />
+				Farther and farther, till out of sight,<br />
+				And we stood alone in the silent night!<br />
+				Often since, in the nights of June,<br />
+				We sit on the sand and watch the moon,&#8212;<br />
+				<a class="pagenumber" name="page352" id="page352" title="352"></a>
+				She has gone to the great Gromboolian Plain,<br />
+				And we probably never shall meet again!<br />
+				Oft, in the long still nights of June,<br />
+				We sit on the rocks and watch the moon,&#8212;<br />
+				She dwells by the streams of the Chankly Bore.<br />
+				And we probably never shall see her more.<br />
+				<span class="i2">Ploffskin, Pluffskin, Pelican jee!</span>
+				<span class="i2">We think no Birds so happy as we!</span>
+				<span class="i2">Plumpskin, Ploshkin, Pelican jill!</span>

+				<p>
+				By way of a hat he'd a loaf of Brown Bread,<br />
+				In the middle of which he inserted his head;<br />
+				His Shirt was made up of no end of dead Mice,<br />
+				The warmth of whose skins was quite fluffy and nice;<br />
+				His Drawers were of Rabbit-skins, so were his Shoes;<br />
+				His Stockings were skins, but it is not known whose;<br />
+				His Waistcoat and Trowsers were made of Pork Chops;<br />
+				His Buttons were Jujubes and Chocolate Drops;<br />
+				His Coat was all Pancakes, with Jam for a border,<br />
+				And a girdle of Biscuits to keep it in order;<br />
+				And he wore over all, as a screen from bad weather,<br />
+				A Cloak of green Cabbage-leaves stitched all together.
+				</p>
+				<p>
+				He had walked a short way, when he heard a great noise,<br />
+				Of all sorts of Beasticles, Birdlings, and Boys;<br />
+				And from every long street and dark lane in the town<br />
+				Beasts, Birdies, and Boys in a tumult rushed down.<br />
+				Two Cows and a Calf ate his Cabbage-leaf Cloak;<br />
+				Four Apes seized his Girdle, which vanished like smoke;<br />
+				<a class="pagenumber" name="page364" id="page364" title="364"></a>
+				Three Kids ate up half of his Pancaky Coat,<br />
+				And the tails were devour'd by an ancient He Goat;<br />
+				An army of Dogs in a twinkling tore <i>up</i> his<br />
+				Pork Waistcoat and Trowsers to give to their Puppies;<br />
+				And while they were growling, and mumbling the Chops,<br />
+				Ten Boys prigged the Jujubes and Chocolate Drops.<br />
+				He tried to run back to his house, but in vain,<br />
+				For scores of fat Pigs came again and again:<br />
+				They rushed out of stables and hovels and doors;<br />
+				They tore off his stockings, his shoes, and his drawers;<br />
+				And now from the housetops with screechings descend<br />
+				Striped, spotted, white, black, and gray Cats without end:<br />
+				They jumped on his shoulders and knocked off his hat,<br />
+				When Crows, Ducks, and Hens made a mincemeat of that;<br />
+				They speedily flew at his sleeves in a trice,<br />
+				And utterly tore up his Shirt of dead Mice;<br />
+				They swallowed the last of his Shirt with a squall,&#8212;<br />
+				Whereon he ran home with no clothes on at all.
+				</p>
+				<p>
+				And he said to himself, as he bolted the door,<br />
+				"I will not wear a similar dress any more,<br />
+				Any more, any more, any more, never more!"

+
+1.A.  By reading or using any part of this Project Gutenberg-tm
+electronic work, you indicate that you have read, understand, agree to
+and accept all the terms of this license and intellectual property
+(trademark/copyright) agreement.  If you do not agree to abide by all
+the terms of this agreement, you must cease using and return or destroy
+all copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in your possession.
+If you paid a fee for obtaining a copy of or access to a Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic work and you do not agree to be bound by the
+terms of this agreement, you may obtain a refund from the person or
+entity to whom you paid the fee as set forth in paragraph 1.E.8.
+
+1.B.  "Project Gutenberg" is a registered trademark.  It may only be
+used on or associated in any way with an electronic work by people who
+agree to be bound by the terms of this agreement.  There are a few
+things that you can do with most Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works
+even without complying with the full terms of this agreement.  See
+paragraph 1.C below.  There are a lot of things you can do with Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic works if you follow the terms of this agreement
+and help preserve free future access to Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.  See paragraph 1.E below.
+
+1.C.  The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation ("the Foundation"
+or PGLAF), owns a compilation copyright in the collection of Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic works.  Nearly all the individual works in the
+collection are in the public domain in the United States.  If an
+individual work is in the public domain in the United States and you are
+located in the United States, we do not claim a right to prevent you from
+copying, distributing, performing, displaying or creating derivative
+works based on the work as long as all references to Project Gutenberg
+are removed.  Of course, we hope that you will support the Project
+Gutenberg-tm mission of promoting free access to electronic works by
+freely sharing Project Gutenberg-tm works in compliance with the terms of
+this agreement for keeping the Project Gutenberg-tm name associated with
+the work.  You can easily comply with the terms of this agreement by
+keeping this work in the same format with its attached full Project
+Gutenberg-tm License when you share it without charge with others.
+
+1.D.  The copyright laws of the place where you are located also govern
+what you can do with this work.  Copyright laws in most countries are in
+a constant state of change.  If you are outside the United States, check
+the laws of your country in addition to the terms of this agreement
+before downloading, copying, displaying, performing, distributing or
+creating derivative works based on this work or any other Project
+Gutenberg-tm work.  The Foundation makes no representations concerning
+the copyright status of any work in any country outside the United
+States.
+
+1.E.  Unless you have removed all references to Project Gutenberg:
+
+1.E.1.  The following sentence, with active links to, or other immediate
+access to, the full Project Gutenberg-tm License must appear prominently
+whenever any copy of a Project Gutenberg-tm work (any work on which the
+phrase "Project Gutenberg" appears, or with which the phrase "Project
+Gutenberg" is associated) is accessed, displayed, performed, viewed,
+copied or distributed:
+
+This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere at no cost and with
+almost no restrictions whatsoever.  You may copy it, give it away or
+re-use it under the terms of the Project Gutenberg License included
+with this eBook or online at www.gutenberg.org
+
+1.E.2.  If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is derived
+from the public domain (does not contain a notice indicating that it is
+posted with permission of the copyright holder), the work can be copied
+and distributed to anyone in the United States without paying any fees
+or charges.  If you are redistributing or providing access to a work
+with the phrase "Project Gutenberg" associated with or appearing on the
+work, you must comply either with the requirements of paragraphs 1.E.1
+through 1.E.7 or obtain permission for the use of the work and the
+Project Gutenberg-tm trademark as set forth in paragraphs 1.E.8 or
+1.E.9.
+
+1.E.3.  If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is posted
+with the permission of the copyright holder, your use and distribution
+must comply with both paragraphs 1.E.1 through 1.E.7 and any additional
+terms imposed by the copyright holder.  Additional terms will be linked
+to the Project Gutenberg-tm License for all works posted with the
+permission of the copyright holder found at the beginning of this work.
+
+1.E.4.  Do not unlink or detach or remove the full Project Gutenberg-tm
+License terms from this work, or any files containing a part of this
+work or any other work associated with Project Gutenberg-tm.
+
+1.E.5.  Do not copy, display, perform, distribute or redistribute this
+electronic work, or any part of this electronic work, without
+prominently displaying the sentence set forth in paragraph 1.E.1 with
+active links or immediate access to the full terms of the Project
+Gutenberg-tm License.
+
+1.E.6.  You may convert to and distribute this work in any binary,
+compressed, marked up, nonproprietary or proprietary form, including any
+word processing or hypertext form.  However, if you provide access to or
+distribute copies of a Project Gutenberg-tm work in a format other than
+"Plain Vanilla ASCII" or other format used in the official version
+posted on the official Project Gutenberg-tm web site (www.gutenberg.org),
+you must, at no additional cost, fee or expense to the user, provide a
+copy, a means of exporting a copy, or a means of obtaining a copy upon
+request, of the work in its original "Plain Vanilla ASCII" or other
+form.  Any alternate format must include the full Project Gutenberg-tm
+License as specified in paragraph 1.E.1.
+
+1.E.7.  Do not charge a fee for access to, viewing, displaying,
+performing, copying or distributing any Project Gutenberg-tm works
+unless you comply with paragraph 1.E.8 or 1.E.9.

+access to or distributing Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works provided
+that
+
+- You pay a royalty fee of 20% of the gross profits you derive from
+     the use of Project Gutenberg-tm works calculated using the method
+     you already use to calculate your applicable taxes.  The fee is
+     owed to the owner of the Project Gutenberg-tm trademark, but he
+     has agreed to donate royalties under this paragraph to the
+     Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation.  Royalty payments
+     must be paid within 60 days following each date on which you
+     prepare (or are legally required to prepare) your periodic tax
+     returns.  Royalty payments should be clearly marked as such and
+     sent to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation at the
+     address specified in Section 4, "Information about donations to
+     the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation."
+
+- You provide a full refund of any money paid by a user who notifies
+     you in writing (or by e-mail) within 30 days of receipt that s/he
+     does not agree to the terms of the full Project Gutenberg-tm
+     License.  You must require such a user to return or
+     destroy all copies of the works possessed in a physical medium
+     and discontinue all use of and all access to other copies of
+     Project Gutenberg-tm works.
+
+- You provide, in accordance with paragraph 1.F.3, a full refund of any
+     money paid for a work or a replacement copy, if a defect in the
+     electronic work is discovered and reported to you within 90 days
+     of receipt of the work.
+
+- You comply with all other terms of this agreement for free
+     distribution of Project Gutenberg-tm works.
+
+1.E.9.  If you wish to charge a fee or distribute a Project Gutenberg-tm
+electronic work or group of works on different terms than are set
+forth in this agreement, you must obtain permission in writing from
+both the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation and Michael
+Hart, the owner of the Project Gutenberg-tm trademark.  Contact the
+Foundation as set forth in Section 3 below.
+
+1.F.
+
+1.F.1.  Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable
+effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread
+public domain works in creating the Project Gutenberg-tm
+collection.  Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may contain
+"Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate or
+corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other intellectual
+property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other medium, a
+computer virus, or computer codes that damage or cannot be read by
+your equipment.
+
+1.F.2.  LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the "Right
+of Replacement or Refund" described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the Project
+Gutenberg-tm trademark, and any other party distributing a Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic work under this agreement, disclaim all
+liability to you for damages, costs and expenses, including legal
+fees.  YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR NEGLIGENCE, STRICT
+LIABILITY, BREACH OF WARRANTY OR BREACH OF CONTRACT EXCEPT THOSE
+PROVIDED IN PARAGRAPH F3.  YOU AGREE THAT THE FOUNDATION, THE
+TRADEMARK OWNER, AND ANY DISTRIBUTOR UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT BE
+LIABLE TO YOU FOR ACTUAL, DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR
+INCIDENTAL DAMAGES EVEN IF YOU GIVE NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
+DAMAGE.
+
+1.F.3.  LIMITED RIGHT OF REPLACEMENT OR REFUND - If you discover a
+defect in this electronic work within 90 days of receiving it, you can
+receive a refund of the money (if any) you paid for it by sending a
+written explanation to the person you received the work from.  If you
+received the work on a physical medium, you must return the medium with
+your written explanation.  The person or entity that provided you with
+the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in lieu of a
+refund.  If you received the work electronically, the person or entity
+providing it to you may choose to give you a second opportunity to
+receive the work electronically in lieu of a refund.  If the second copy
+is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing without further
+opportunities to fix the problem.
+
+1.F.4.  Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth
+in paragraph 1.F.3, this work is provided to you 'AS-IS,' WITH NO OTHER
+WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO
+WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTIBILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PURPOSE.
+
+1.F.5.  Some states do not allow disclaimers of certain implied
+warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of damages.
+If any disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement violates the
+law of the state applicable to this agreement, the agreement shall be
+interpreted to make the maximum disclaimer or limitation permitted by
+the applicable state law.  The invalidity or unenforceability of any
+provision of this agreement shall not void the remaining provisions.
+
+1.F.6.  INDEMNITY - You agree to indemnify and hold the Foundation, the
+trademark owner, any agent or employee of the Foundation, anyone
+providing copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in accordance
+with this agreement, and any volunteers associated with the production,
+promotion and distribution of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works,
+harmless from all liability, costs and expenses, including legal fees,
+that arise directly or indirectly from any of the following which you do
+or cause to occur: (a) distribution of this or any Project Gutenberg-tm
+work, (b) alteration, modification, or additions or deletions to any
+Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any Defect you cause.
+
+
+Section  2.  Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers.  It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come.  In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at https://www.gutenberg.org/fundraising/pglaf.
+
+
+Section 3.  Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive
+Foundation
+
+The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non profit
+501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
+state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
+Revenue Service.  The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification
+number is 64-6221541.  Contributions to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent
+permitted by U.S. federal laws and your state's laws.
+
+The Foundation's principal office is located at 4557 Melan Dr. S.
+Fairbanks, AK, 99712., but its volunteers and employees are scattered
+throughout numerous locations.  Its business office is located at
+809 North 1500 West, Salt Lake City, UT 84116, (801) 596-1887, email
+business@pglaf.org.  Email contact links and up to date contact
+information can be found at the Foundation's web site and official
+page at https://www.gutenberg.org/about/contact
+
+For additional contact information:
+     Dr. Gregory B. Newby
+     Chief Executive and Director
+     gbnewby@pglaf.org
+
+Section 4.  Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment.  Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States.  Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements.  We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance.  To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit https://www.gutenberg.org/fundraising/pglaf
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States.  U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses.  Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including including checks, online payments and credit card
+donations.  To donate, please visit:
+https://www.gutenberg.org/fundraising/donate
+
+
+Section 5.  General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone.  For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included.  Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+Each eBook is in a subdirectory of the same number as the eBook's
+eBook number, often in several formats including plain vanilla ASCII,
+compressed (zipped), HTML and others.
+
+Corrected EDITIONS of our eBooks replace the old file and take over
+the old filename and etext number.  The replaced older file is renamed.
+VERSIONS based on separate sources are treated as new eBooks receiving
+new filenames and etext numbers.
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+<a href="https://www.gutenberg.org">https://www.gutenberg.org</a>
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
+
+EBooks posted prior to November 2003, with eBook numbers BELOW #10000,
+are filed in directories based on their release date.  If you want to
+download any of these eBooks directly, rather than using the regular
+search system you may utilize the following addresses and just
+download by the etext year.
+
+<a href="https://www.gutenberg.org/dirs/etext06/">https://www.gutenberg.org/dirs/etext06/</a>
+
+    (Or /etext 05, 04, 03, 02, 01, 00, 99,
+     98, 97, 96, 95, 94, 93, 92, 92, 91 or 90)
+
+EBooks posted since November 2003, with etext numbers OVER #10000, are
+filed in a different way.  The year of a release date is no longer part
+of the directory path.  The path is based on the etext number (which is
+identical to the filename).  The path to the file is made up of single
+digits corresponding to all but the last digit in the filename.  For
+example an eBook of filename 10234 would be found at:
+
+https://www.gutenberg.org/dirs/1/0/2/3/10234
+
+or filename 24689 would be found at:
+https://www.gutenberg.org/dirs/2/4/6/8/24689

+THE DONG WITH A LUMINOUS NOSE.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+    When awful darkness and silence reign
+    Over the great Gromboolian plain,
+        Through the long, long wintry nights;
+    When the angry breakers roar
+    As they beat on the rocky shore;
+        When Storm-clouds brood on the towering heights
+    Of the Hills of the Chankly Bore,--
+
+    Then, through the vast and gloomy dark
+    There moves what seems a fiery spark,--
+        A lonely spark with silvery rays
+        Piercing the coal-black night,--
+        A Meteor strange and bright:
+    Hither and thither the vision strays,
+        A single lurid light.
+
+    Slowly it wanders, pauses, creeps,--
+    Anon it sparkles, flashes, and leaps;
+    And ever as onward it gleaming goes
+    A light on the Bong-tree stems it throws.
+    And those who watch at that midnight hour
+    From Hall or Terrace or lofty Tower,
+    Cry, as the wild light passes along,--
+       "The Dong! the Dong!
+      The wandering Dong through the forest goes!
+        The Dong! the Dong!
+      The Dong with a luminous Nose!"
+
+        Long years ago
+      The Dong was happy and gay,
+    Till he fell in love with a Jumbly Girl
+      Who came to those shores one day.
+    For the Jumblies came in a sieve, they did,--
+    Landing at eve near the Zemmery Fidd
+        Where the Oblong Oysters grow,
+      And the rocks are smooth and gray.
+    And all the woods and the valleys rang
+    With the Chorus they daily and nightly sang,--
+        "_Far and few, far and few,
+          Are the lands where the Jumblies live;
+          Their heads are green, and their hands are blue,
+          And they went to sea in a sieve._"
+
+    Happily, happily passed those days!
+      While the cheerful Jumblies staid;
+        They danced in circlets all night long,
+        To the plaintive pipe of the lively Dong,
+      In moonlight, shine, or shade.
+    For day and night he was always there
+    By the side of the Jumbly Girl so fair,
+    With her sky-blue hands and her sea-green hair;
+    Till the morning came of that hateful day
+    When the Jumblies sailed in their sieve away,
+    And the Dong was left on the cruel shore
+    Gazing, gazing for evermore,--
+    Ever keeping his weary eyes on
+    That pea-green sail on the far horizon,--
+    Singing the Jumbly Chorus still
+    As he sate all day on the grassy hill,--
+        "_Far and few, far and few,
+          Are the lands where the Jumblies live;
+          Their heads are green, and their hands are blue,
+          And they went to sea in a sieve_."
+
+    But when the sun was low in the West,
+        The Dong arose and said,--
+    "What little sense I once possessed
+        Has quite gone out of my head!"
+    And since that day he wanders still
+    By lake and forest, marsh and hill,
+    Singing, "O somewhere, in valley or plain,
+    Might I find my Jumbly Girl again!
+    For ever I'll seek by lake and shore
+    Till I find my Jumbly Girl once more!"
+
+        Playing a pipe with silvery squeaks,
+        Since then his Jumbly Girl he seeks;
+        And because by night he could not see,
+        He gathered the bark of the Twangum Tree
+          On the flowery plain that grows.
+          And he wove him a wondrous Nose,--
+        A Nose as strange as a Nose could be!
+
+    Of vast proportions and painted red,
+    And tied with cords to the back of his head.
+        In a hollow rounded space it ended
+        With a luminous Lamp within suspended,
+            All fenced about
+            With a bandage stout
+            To prevent the wind from blowing it out;
+        And with holes all round to send the light
+        In gleaming rays on the dismal night
+
+    And now each night, and all night long,
+    Over those plains still roams the Dong;
+    And above the wail of the Chimp and Snipe
+    You may hear the squeak of his plaintive pipe,
+    While ever he seeks, but seeks in vain,
+    To meet with his Jumbly Girl again;
+    Lonely and wild, all night he goes,--
+    The Dong with a luminous Nose!
+    And all who watch at the midnight hour,
+    From Hall or Terrace or lofty Tower,
+    Cry, as they trace the Meteor bright,
+    Moving along through the dreary night,--
+       "This is the hour when forth he goes,
+        The Dong with a luminous Nose!
+        Yonder, over the plain he goes,--
+            He goes!
+            He goes,--
+        The Dong with a luminous Nose!"
+
+
+
+
+THE TWO OLD BACHELORS.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+Two old Bachelors were living in one house;
+One caught a Muffin, the other caught a Mouse.
+Said he who caught the Muffin to him who caught the Mouse,--
+"This happens just in time! For we've nothing in the house,
+Save a tiny slice of lemon and a teaspoonful of honey,
+And what to do for dinner--since we haven't any money?
+And what can we expect if we haven't any dinner,
+But to lose our teeth and eyelashes and keep on growing thinner?"
+
+Said he who caught the Mouse to him who caught the Muffin,--
+"We might cook this little Mouse, if we only had some Stuffin'!
+If we had but Sage and Onion we could do extremely well;
+But how to get that Stuffin' it is difficult to tell!"
+
+Those two old Bachelors ran quickly to the town
+And asked for Sage and Onion as they wandered up and down;
+They borrowed two large Onions, but no Sage was to be found
+In the Shops, or in the Market, or in all the Gardens round.
+
+But some one said, "A hill there is, a little to the north,
+And to its purpledicular top a narrow way leads forth;
+And there among the rugged rocks abides an ancient Sage,--
+An earnest Man, who reads all day a most perplexing page.
+Climb up, and seize him by the toes,--all studious as he sits,--
+And pull him down, and chop him into endless little bits!
+Then mix him with your Onion (cut up likewise into Scraps),--
+When your Stuffin' will be ready, and very good--perhaps."
+
+Those two old Bachelors without loss of time
+The nearly purpledicular crags at once began to climb;
+And at the top, among the rocks, all seated in a nook,
+They saw that Sage a-reading of a most enormous book.
+
+"You earnest Sage!" aloud they cried, "your book you've read enough in!
+We wish to chop you into bits to mix you into Stuffin'!"
+
+But that old Sage looked calmly up, and with his awful book,
+At those two Bachelors' bald heads a certain aim he took;
+And over Crag and precipice they rolled promiscuous down,--
+At once they rolled, and never stopped in lane or field or town;
+And when they reached their house, they found (besides their want
+                                                          of Stuffin'),
+The Mouse had fled--and, previously, had eaten up the Muffin.
+
+They left their home in silence by the once convivial door;
+And from that hour those Bachelors were never heard of more.
+
+
+[Illustration: Sheet Music--The Pelicans]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+THE PELICAN CHORUS.
+
+    King and Queen of the Pelicans we;
+     No other Birds so grand we see!
+    None but we have feet like fins!
+    With lovely leathery throats and chins!
+        Ploffskin, Pluffskin, Pelican jee!
+        We think no Birds so happy as we!
+        Plumpskin, Ploshkin, Pelican Jill!
+        We think so then, and we thought so still
+
+    We live on the Nile. The Nile we love.
+    By night we sleep on the cliffs above;
+    By day we fish, and at eve we stand
+    On long bare islands of yellow sand.
+    And when the sun sinks slowly down,
+    And the great rock walls grow dark and brown,
+
+    Where the purple river rolls fast and dim
+    And the Ivory Ibis starlike skim,
+    Wing to wing we dance around,
+    Stamping our feet with a flumpy sound,
+    Opening our mouths as Pelicans ought;
+    And this is the song we nightly snort,--
+        Ploffskin, Pluffskin, Pelican jee!
+        We think no Birds so happy as we!
+        Plumpskin, Ploshkin, Pelican jill!
+        We think so then, and we thought so still!
+
+    Last year came out our Daughter Dell,
+    And all the Birds received her well.
+    To do her honor a feast we made
+    For every bird that can swim or wade,--
+    Herons and Gulls, and Cormorants black,
+    Cranes, and Flamingoes with scarlet back,
+    Plovers and Storks, and Geese in clouds,
+    Swans and Dilberry Ducks in crowds:
+    Thousands of Birds in wondrous flight!
+    They ate and drank and danced all night,
+    And echoing back from the rocks you heard
+    Multitude-echoes from Bird and Bird,--
+        Ploffskin, Pluffskin, Pelican jee!
+        We think no Birds so happy as we!
+        Plumpskin, Ploshkin, Pelican jill!
+        We think so then, and we thought so still!
+
+    Yes, they came; and among the rest
+    The King of the Cranes all grandly dressed.
+    Such a lovely tail! Its feathers float
+    Between the ends of his blue dress-coat;
+    With pea-green trowsers all so neat,
+    And a delicate frill to hide his feet
+    (For though no one speaks of it, every one knows
+    He has got no webs between his toes).
+
+    As soon as he saw our Daughter Dell,
+    In violent love that Crane King fell,--
+    On seeing her waddling form so fair,
+    With a wreath of shrimps in her short white hair.
+    And before the end of the next long day
+    Our Dell had given her heart away;
+    For the King of the Cranes had won that heart
+    With a Crocodile's egg and a large fish-tart.
+    She vowed to marry the King of the Cranes,
+    Leaving the Nile for stranger plains;
+    And away they flew in a gathering crowd
+    Of endless birds in a lengthening cloud.
+        Ploffskin, Pluffskin, Pelican jee!
+        We think no Birds so happy as we!
+        Plumpskin, Ploshkin, Pelican jill!
+        We think so then, and we thought so still!
+
+    And far away in the twilight sky
+    We heard them singing a lessening cry,--
+    Farther and farther, till out of sight,
+    And we stood alone in the silent night!
+    Often since, in the nights of June,
+    We sit on the sand and watch the moon,--
+
+    She has gone to the great Gromboolian Plain,
+    And we probably never shall meet again!
+    Oft, in the long still nights of June,
+    We sit on the rocks and watch the moon,--
+    She dwells by the streams of the Chankly Bore.
+    And we probably never shall see her more.
+        Ploffskin, Pluffskin, Pelican jee!
+        We think no Birds so happy as we!
+        Plumpskin, Ploshkin, Pelican jill!
+        We think so then, and we thought so still!

+
+    On the Coast of Coromandel

+    Two old chairs, and half a candle,
+    One old jug without a handle,--
+          These were all his worldly goods:
+          In the middle of the woods,
+          These were all the worldly goods
+      Of the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo,
+      Of the Yonghy-Bonghy Bo.
+
+
+                    II.
+
+    Once, among the Bong-trees walking
+        Where the early pumpkins blow,
+          To a little heap of stones
+      Came the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo.
+    There he heard a Lady talking,
+    To some milk-white Hens of Dorking,--
+        "'Tis the Lady Jingly Jones!
+          On that little heap of stones
+          Sits the Lady Jingly Jones!"
+      Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo,
+      Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo.
+
+
+                    III.
+
+   "Lady Jingly! Lady Jingly!
+         Sitting where the pumpkins blow,
+           Will you come and be my wife?"
+       Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo.
+   "I am tired of living singly--
+    On this coast so wild and shingly,--
+          I'm a-weary of my life;
+          If you'll come and be my wife,
+          Quite serene would be my life!"
+      Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo,
+      Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo.
+
+
+                    IV.
+
+    "On this Coast of Coromandel
+         Shrimps and watercresses grow,
+           Prawns are plentiful and cheap,"
+       Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo.
+   "You shall have my chairs and candle,
+    And my jug without a handle!
+          Gaze upon the rolling deep
+         (Fish is plentiful and cheap);
+          As the sea, my love is deep!"
+      Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo,
+      Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo.
+
+
+                    V.
+
+    Lady Jingly answered sadly,
+         And her tears began to flow,--
+          "Your proposal comes too late,
+       Mr. Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo!
+    I would be your wife most gladly!"
+    (Here she twirled her fingers madly,)
+         "But in England I've a mate!
+          Yes! you've asked me far too late,
+          For in England I've a mate,
+      Mr. Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo!
+      Mr. Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo!
+
+
+                    VI.
+
+   "Mr. Jones (his name is Handel,--
+         Handel Jones, Esquire, & Co.)
+           Dorking fowls delights to send,
+       Mr. Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo!
+    Keep, oh, keep your chairs and candle,
+    And your jug without a handle,--
+          I can merely be your friend!
+          Should my Jones more Dorkings send,
+          I will give you three, my friend!
+      Mr. Yonghy-Bongy-Bo!
+      Mr. Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo!
+
+
+                    VII.
+
+   "Though you've such a tiny body,
+         And your head so large doth grow,--
+           Though your hat may blow away,
+       Mr. Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo!
+    Though you're such a Hoddy Doddy,
+    Yet I wish that I could modi-
+          fy the words I needs must say!
+          Will you please to go away?
+          That is all I have to say,
+      Mr. Yongby-Bonghy-Bo!
+      Mr. Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo!"
+
+
+                    VIII.
+
+    Down the slippery slopes of Myrtle,
+        Where the early pumpkins blow,
+          To the calm and silent sea
+       Fled the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo.
+    There, beyond the Bay of Gurtle,
+    Lay a large and lively Turtle.
+         "You're the Cove," he said, "for me;
+          On your back beyond the sea,
+          Turtle, you shall carry me!"
+      Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo,
+      Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo.
+
+              [Illustration]
+
+
+                    IX.
+
+    Through the silent-roaring ocean
+        Did the Turtle swiftly go;
+          Holding fast upon his shell
+      Rode the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo.
+    With a sad primaeval motion
+    Towards the sunset isles of Boshen
+          Still the Turtle bore him well.
+          Holding fast upon his shell,
+         "Lady Jingly Jones, farewell!"
+      Sang the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo,
+      Sang the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo.
+
+
+                    X.
+
+    From the Coast of Coromandel
+        Did that Lady never go;
+          On that heap of stones she mourns
+      For the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo.
+    On that Coast of Coromandel,
+    In his jug without a handle
+        Still she weeps, and daily moans;
+        On that little heap of stones
+        To her Dorking Hens she moans,
+          For the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo,
+          For the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo.
+
+
+
+
+THE POBBLE WHO HAS NO TOES.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+                    I.
+
+    The Pobble who has no toes
+        Had once as many as we;
+    When they said, "Some day you may lose them all;"
+        He replied, "Fish fiddle de-dee!"
+    And his Aunt Jobiska made him drink
+    Lavender water tinged with pink;
+    For she said, "The World in general knows
+    There's nothing so good for a Pobble's toes!"
+
+
+                    II.
+
+    The Pobble who has no toes,
+        Swam across the Bristol Channel;
+    But before he set out he wrapped his nose
+        In a piece of scarlet flannel.
+    For his Aunt Jobiska said, "No harm
+    Can come to his toes if his nose is warm;
+    And it's perfectly known that a Pobble's toes
+    Are safe--provided he minds his nose."
+
+
+                    III.
+
+    The Pobble swam fast and well,
+        And when boats or ships came near him,
+    He tinkledy-binkledy-winkled a bell
+        So that all the world could hear him.
+    And all the Sailors and Admirals cried,
+    When they saw him nearing the further side,--
+   "He has gone to fish, for his Aunt Jobiska's
+    Runcible Cat with crimson whiskers!"
+
+
+                    IV.
+
+    But before he touched the shore,--
+        The shore of the Bristol Channel,
+    A sea-green Porpoise carried away
+        His wrapper of scarlet flannel.
+    And when he came to observe his feet,
+    Formerly garnished with toes so neat,
+    His face at once became forlorn
+    On perceiving that all his toes were gone!
+
+
+                    V.
+
+    And nobody ever knew,
+        From that dark day to the present,
+    Whoso had taken the Pobble's toes,
+        In a manner so far from pleasant.
+    Whether the shrimps or crawfish gray,
+    Or crafty Mermaids stole them away,
+    Nobody knew; and nobody knows
+    How the Pobble was robbed of his twice five toes!
+
+
+                    VI.
+
+    The Pobble who has no toes
+        Was placed in a friendly Bark,
+    And they rowed him back, and carried him up
+        To his Aunt Jobiska's Park.
+    And she made him a feast, at his earnest wish,
+    Of eggs and buttercups fried with fish;
+    And she said, "It's a fact the whole world knows,
+    That Pobbles are happier without their toes."
+
+
+
+
+THE NEW VESTMENTS.
+
+    There lived an old man in the Kingdom of Tess,
+    Who invented a purely original dress;
+    And when it was perfectly made and complete,
+    He opened the door and walked into the street.
+
+    By way of a hat he'd a loaf of Brown Bread,
+    In the middle of which he inserted his head;
+    His Shirt was made up of no end of dead Mice,
+    The warmth of whose skins was quite fluffy and nice;
+    His Drawers were of Rabbit-skins, so were his Shoes;
+    His Stockings were skins, but it is not known whose;
+    His Waistcoat and Trowsers were made of Pork Chops;
+    His Buttons were Jujubes and Chocolate Drops;
+    His Coat was all Pancakes, with Jam for a border,
+    And a girdle of Biscuits to keep it in order;
+    And he wore over all, as a screen from bad weather,
+    A Cloak of green Cabbage-leaves stitched all together.
+
+    He had walked a short way, when he heard a great noise,
+    Of all sorts of Beasticles, Birdlings, and Boys;
+    And from every long street and dark lane in the town
+    Beasts, Birdies, and Boys in a tumult rushed down.
+    Two Cows and a Calf ate his Cabbage-leaf Cloak;
+    Four Apes seized his Girdle, which vanished like smoke;
+    Three Kids ate up half of his Pancaky Coat,
+    And the tails were devour'd by an ancient He Goat;
+    An army of Dogs in a twinkling tore _up_ his
+    Pork Waistcoat and Trowsers to give to their Puppies;
+    And while they were growling, and mumbling the Chops,
+    Ten Boys prigged the Jujubes and Chocolate Drops.
+    He tried to run back to his house, but in vain,
+    For scores of fat Pigs came again and again:
+    They rushed out of stables and hovels and doors;
+    They tore off his stockings, his shoes, and his drawers;
+    And now from the housetops with screechings descend
+    Striped, spotted, white, black, and gray Cats without end:
+    They jumped on his shoulders and knocked off his hat,
+    When Crows, Ducks, and Hens made a mincemeat of that;
+    They speedily flew at his sleeves in a trice,
+    And utterly tore up his Shirt of dead Mice;
+    They swallowed the last of his Shirt with a squall,--
+    Whereon he ran home with no clothes on at all.
+
+    And he said to himself, as he bolted the door,
+   "I will not wear a similar dress any more,
+    Any more, any more, any more, never more!"
+
+
+
+
+MR. AND MRS. DISCOBBOLOS.
+
+                    I.
+
+    Mr. and Mrs. Discobbolos
+        Climbed to the top of a wall.
+      And they sate to watch the sunset sky,
+      And to hear the Nupiter Piffkin cry,
+        And the Biscuit Buffalo call.
+    They took up a roll and some Camomile tea,
+    And both were as happy as happy could be,
+            Till Mrs. Discobbolos said,--
+           "Oh! W! X! Y! Z!
+            It has just come into my head,
+      Suppose we should happen to fall!!!!!
+                        Darling Mr. Discobbolos!
+
+
+                    II.
+
+   "Suppose we should fall down flumpetty,
+        Just like pieces of stone,
+      On to the thorns, or into the moat,
+      What would become of your new green coat?
+        And might you not break a bone?
+    It never occurred to me before,
+    That perhaps we shall never go down any more!"
+            And Mrs. Discobbolos said,
+           "Oh! W! X! Y! Z!
+            What put it into your head
+      To climb up this wall, my own
+                        Darling Mr. Discobbolos?"
+
+
+                    III.
+
+    Mr. Discobbolos answered,
+       "At first it gave me pain,
+      And I felt my ears turn perfectly pink
+      When your exclamation made me think
+        We might never get down again!
+    But now I believe it is wiser far
+    To remain for ever just where we are."
+            And Mr. Discobbolos said,
+           "Oh! W! X! Y! Z!
+            It has just come into my head
+      We shall never go down again,
+                        Dearest Mrs. Discobbolos!"
+
+
+                    IV.
+
+    So Mr. and Mrs. Discobbolos
+        Stood up and began to sing,--
+     "Far away from hurry and strife
+      Here we will pass the rest of life,
+        Ding a dong, ding dong, ding!
+    We want no knives nor forks nor chairs,
+    No tables nor carpets nor household cares;
+            From worry of life we've fled;
+            Oh! W! X! Y! Z!
+            There is no more trouble ahead,
+      Sorrow or any such thing,
+                        For Mr. and Mrs. Discobbolos!"
+
+
+
+
+THE QUANGLE WANGLE'S HAT.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+                    I.
+
+    On the top of the Crumpetty Tree
+        The Quangle Wangle sat,
+    But his face you could not see,
+        On account of his Beaver Hat.
+    For his Hat was a hundred and two feet wide,
+    With ribbons and bibbons on every side,
+    And bells, and buttons, and loops, and lace,
+    So that nobody ever could see the face
+            Of the Quangle Wangle Quee.
+
+
+                    II.
+
+    The Quangle Wangle said
+        To himself on the Crumpetty Tree,
+    "Jam, and jelly, and bread
+        Are the best of food for me!
+    But the longer I live on this Crumpetty Tree
+    The plainer than ever it seems to me
+    That very few people come this way
+    And that life on the whole is far from gay!"
+            Said the Quangle Wangle Quee.
+
+
+                    III.
+
+    But there came to the Crumpetty Tree
+        Mr. and Mrs. Canary;
+    And they said, "Did ever you see
+        Any spot so charmingly airy?
+    May we build a nest on your lovely Hat?
+    Mr. Quangle Wangle, grant us that!
+    O please let us come and build a nest
+    Of whatever material suits you best,
+            Mr. Quangle Wangle Quee!"
+
+
+                    IV.
+
+    And besides, to the Crumpetty Tree
+        Came the Stork, the Duck, and the Owl;
+    The Snail and the Bumble-Bee,
+        The Frog and the Fimble Fowl
+    (The Fimble Fowl, with a Corkscrew leg);
+    And all of them said, "We humbly beg
+    We may build our homes on your lovely Hat,--
+    Mr. Quangle Wangle, grant us that!
+       Mr. Quangle Wangle Quee!"
+
+
+                    V.
+
+    And the Golden Grouse came there,
+        And the Pobble who has no toes,
+    And the small Olympian bear,
+        And the Dong with a luminous nose.
+    And the Blue Baboon who played the flute,
+    And the Orient Calf from the Land of Tute,
+    And the Attery Squash, and the Bisky Bat,--
+    All came and built on the lovely Hat
+      Of the Quangle Wangle Quee.
+
+                    VI.
+
+    And the Quangle Wangle said
+        To himself on the Crumpetty Tree,
+    "When all these creatures move
+        What a wonderful noise there'll be!"
+    And at night by the light of the Mulberry moon
+    They danced to the Flute of the Blue Baboon,
+    On the broad green leaves of the Crumpetty Tree,
+    And all were as happy as happy could be,
+      With the Quangle Wangle Quee.

+
+THE CUMMERBUND.
+An Indian Poem.
+
+                    I.
+
+She sate upon her Dobie,
+    To watch the Evening Star,
+And all the Punkahs, as they passed,
+    Cried, "My! how fair you are!"
+Around her bower, with quivering leaves,
+    The tall Kamsamahs grew,
+And Kitmutgars in wild festoons
+    Hung down from Tchokis blue.
+
+
+                    II.
+
+Below her home the river rolled
+    With soft meloobious sound,
+Where golden-finned Chuprassies swam,
+    In myriads circling round.
+Above, on tallest trees remote
+    Green Ayahs perched alone,
+And all night long the Mussak moan'd
+    Its melancholy tone.
+
+
+                    III.
+
+And where the purple Nullahs threw
+    Their branches far and wide,
+And silvery Goreewallahs flew
+    In silence, side by side,
+The little Bheesties' twittering cry
+    Rose on the flagrant air,
+And oft the angry Jampan howled
+    Deep in his hateful lair.
+
+
+                    IV.
+
+She sate upon her Dobie,
+    She heard the Nimmak hum,
+When all at once a cry arose,
+    "The Cummerbund is come!"
+In vain she fled: with open jaws
+    The angry monster followed,
+And so (before assistance came)
+    That Lady Fair was swollowed.
+
+
+                    V.
+
+They sought in vain for even a bone
+    Respectfully to bury;
+They said, "Hers was a dreadful fate!"
+    (And Echo answered, "Very.")
+They nailed her Dobie to the wall,
+    Where last her form was seen,
+And underneath they wrote these words,
+    In yellow, blue, and green:
+"Beware, ye Fair! Ye Fair, beware!
+    Nor sit out late at night,
+Lest horrid Cummerbunds should come,
+    And swollow you outright."

+
+    When he writes a copy in round-hand size,

+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come.  In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.

+Section 4.  Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide

+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest

+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United

+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up

+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit https://www.gutenberg.org/fundraising/donate

+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States.  U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses.  Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including including checks, online payments and credit card
+donations.  To donate, please visit:

+Section 5.  General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone.  For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included.  Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+     https://www.gutenberg.org
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.

+
+[Illustration]
+
+    When awful darkness and silence reign
+    Over the great Gromboolian plain,
+        Through the long, long wintry nights;
+    When the angry breakers roar
+    As they beat on the rocky shore;
+        When Storm-clouds brood on the towering heights
+    Of the Hills of the Chankly Bore,--
+
+    Then, through the vast and gloomy dark
+    There moves what seems a fiery spark,--
+        A lonely spark with silvery rays
+        Piercing the coal-black night,--
+        A Meteor strange and bright:
+    Hither and thither the vision strays,
+        A single lurid light.
+
+    Slowly it wanders, pauses, creeps,--
+    Anon it sparkles, flashes, and leaps;
+    And ever as onward it gleaming goes
+    A light on the Bong-tree stems it throws.
+    And those who watch at that midnight hour
+    From Hall or Terrace or lofty Tower,
+    Cry, as the wild light passes along,--
+       "The Dong! the Dong!
+      The wandering Dong through the forest goes!
+        The Dong! the Dong!
+      The Dong with a luminous Nose!"
+
+        Long years ago
+      The Dong was happy and gay,
+    Till he fell in love with a Jumbly Girl
+      Who came to those shores one day.
+    For the Jumblies came in a sieve, they did,--
+    Landing at eve near the Zemmery Fidd
+        Where the Oblong Oysters grow,
+      And the rocks are smooth and gray.
+    And all the woods and the valleys rang
+    With the Chorus they daily and nightly sang,--
+        "_Far and few, far and few,
+          Are the lands where the Jumblies live;
+          Their heads are green, and their hands are blue,
+          And they went to sea in a sieve._"
+
+    Happily, happily passed those days!
+      While the cheerful Jumblies staid;
+        They danced in circlets all night long,
+        To the plaintive pipe of the lively Dong,
+      In moonlight, shine, or shade.
+    For day and night he was always there
+    By the side of the Jumbly Girl so fair,
+    With her sky-blue hands and her sea-green hair;
+    Till the morning came of that hateful day
+    When the Jumblies sailed in their sieve away,
+    And the Dong was left on the cruel shore
+    Gazing, gazing for evermore,--
+    Ever keeping his weary eyes on
+    That pea-green sail on the far horizon,--
+    Singing the Jumbly Chorus still
+    As he sate all day on the grassy hill,--
+        "_Far and few, far and few,
+          Are the lands where the Jumblies live;
+          Their heads are green, and their hands are blue,
+          And they went to sea in a sieve_."
+
+    But when the sun was low in the West,
+        The Dong arose and said,--
+    "What little sense I once possessed
+        Has quite gone out of my head!"
+    And since that day he wanders still
+    By lake and forest, marsh and hill,
+    Singing, "O somewhere, in valley or plain,
+    Might I find my Jumbly Girl again!
+    For ever I'll seek by lake and shore
+    Till I find my Jumbly Girl once more!"
+
+        Playing a pipe with silvery squeaks,
+        Since then his Jumbly Girl he seeks;
+        And because by night he could not see,
+        He gathered the bark of the Twangum Tree
+          On the flowery plain that grows.
+          And he wove him a wondrous Nose,--
+        A Nose as strange as a Nose could be!
+
+    Of vast proportions and painted red,
+    And tied with cords to the back of his head.
+        In a hollow rounded space it ended
+        With a luminous Lamp within suspended,
+            All fenced about
+            With a bandage stout
+            To prevent the wind from blowing it out;
+        And with holes all round to send the light
+        In gleaming rays on the dismal night
+
+    And now each night, and all night long,
+    Over those plains still roams the Dong;
+    And above the wail of the Chimp and Snipe
+    You may hear the squeak of his plaintive pipe,
+    While ever he seeks, but seeks in vain,
+    To meet with his Jumbly Girl again;
+    Lonely and wild, all night he goes,--
+    The Dong with a luminous Nose!
+    And all who watch at the midnight hour,
+    From Hall or Terrace or lofty Tower,
+    Cry, as they trace the Meteor bright,
+    Moving along through the dreary night,--
+       "This is the hour when forth he goes,
+        The Dong with a luminous Nose!
+        Yonder, over the plain he goes,--
+            He goes!
+            He goes,--
+        The Dong with a luminous Nose!"
+
+
+
+
+THE TWO OLD BACHELORS.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+Two old Bachelors were living in one house;
+One caught a Muffin, the other caught a Mouse.
+Said he who caught the Muffin to him who caught the Mouse,--
+"This happens just in time! For we've nothing in the house,
+Save a tiny slice of lemon and a teaspoonful of honey,
+And what to do for dinner--since we haven't any money?
+And what can we expect if we haven't any dinner,
+But to lose our teeth and eyelashes and keep on growing thinner?"
+
+Said he who caught the Mouse to him who caught the Muffin,--
+"We might cook this little Mouse, if we only had some Stuffin'!
+If we had but Sage and Onion we could do extremely well;
+But how to get that Stuffin' it is difficult to tell!"
+
+Those two old Bachelors ran quickly to the town
+And asked for Sage and Onion as they wandered up and down;
+They borrowed two large Onions, but no Sage was to be found
+In the Shops, or in the Market, or in all the Gardens round.
+
+But some one said, "A hill there is, a little to the north,
+And to its purpledicular top a narrow way leads forth;
+And there among the rugged rocks abides an ancient Sage,--
+An earnest Man, who reads all day a most perplexing page.
+Climb up, and seize him by the toes,--all studious as he sits,--
+And pull him down, and chop him into endless little bits!
+Then mix him with your Onion (cut up likewise into Scraps),--
+When your Stuffin' will be ready, and very good--perhaps."
+
+Those two old Bachelors without loss of time
+The nearly purpledicular crags at once began to climb;
+And at the top, among the rocks, all seated in a nook,
+They saw that Sage a-reading of a most enormous book.
+
+"You earnest Sage!" aloud they cried, "your book you've read enough in!
+We wish to chop you into bits to mix you into Stuffin'!"
+
+But that old Sage looked calmly up, and with his awful book,
+At those two Bachelors' bald heads a certain aim he took;
+And over Crag and precipice they rolled promiscuous down,--
+At once they rolled, and never stopped in lane or field or town;
+And when they reached their house, they found (besides their want
+                                                          of Stuffin'),
+The Mouse had fled--and, previously, had eaten up the Muffin.
+
+They left their home in silence by the once convivial door;
+And from that hour those Bachelors were never heard of more.
+
+
+[Illustration: Sheet Music--The Pelicans]
+
+[Illustration]
+
+THE PELICAN CHORUS.
+
+    King and Queen of the Pelicans we;
+     No other Birds so grand we see!
+    None but we have feet like fins!
+    With lovely leathery throats and chins!
+        Ploffskin, Pluffskin, Pelican jee!
+        We think no Birds so happy as we!
+        Plumpskin, Ploshkin, Pelican Jill!
+        We think so then, and we thought so still
+
+    We live on the Nile. The Nile we love.
+    By night we sleep on the cliffs above;
+    By day we fish, and at eve we stand
+    On long bare islands of yellow sand.
+    And when the sun sinks slowly down,
+    And the great rock walls grow dark and brown,
+
+    Where the purple river rolls fast and dim
+    And the Ivory Ibis starlike skim,
+    Wing to wing we dance around,
+    Stamping our feet with a flumpy sound,
+    Opening our mouths as Pelicans ought;
+    And this is the song we nightly snort,--
+        Ploffskin, Pluffskin, Pelican jee!
+        We think no Birds so happy as we!
+        Plumpskin, Ploshkin, Pelican jill!
+        We think so then, and we thought so still!
+
+    Last year came out our Daughter Dell,
+    And all the Birds received her well.
+    To do her honor a feast we made
+    For every bird that can swim or wade,--
+    Herons and Gulls, and Cormorants black,
+    Cranes, and Flamingoes with scarlet back,
+    Plovers and Storks, and Geese in clouds,
+    Swans and Dilberry Ducks in crowds:
+    Thousands of Birds in wondrous flight!
+    They ate and drank and danced all night,
+    And echoing back from the rocks you heard
+    Multitude-echoes from Bird and Bird,--
+        Ploffskin, Pluffskin, Pelican jee!
+        We think no Birds so happy as we!
+        Plumpskin, Ploshkin, Pelican jill!
+        We think so then, and we thought so still!
+
+    Yes, they came; and among the rest
+    The King of the Cranes all grandly dressed.
+    Such a lovely tail! Its feathers float
+    Between the ends of his blue dress-coat;
+    With pea-green trowsers all so neat,
+    And a delicate frill to hide his feet
+    (For though no one speaks of it, every one knows
+    He has got no webs between his toes).
+
+    As soon as he saw our Daughter Dell,
+    In violent love that Crane King fell,--
+    On seeing her waddling form so fair,
+    With a wreath of shrimps in her short white hair.
+    And before the end of the next long day
+    Our Dell had given her heart away;
+    For the King of the Cranes had won that heart
+    With a Crocodile's egg and a large fish-tart.
+    She vowed to marry the King of the Cranes,
+    Leaving the Nile for stranger plains;
+    And away they flew in a gathering crowd
+    Of endless birds in a lengthening cloud.
+        Ploffskin, Pluffskin, Pelican jee!
+        We think no Birds so happy as we!
+        Plumpskin, Ploshkin, Pelican jill!
+        We think so then, and we thought so still!
+
+    And far away in the twilight sky
+    We heard them singing a lessening cry,--
+    Farther and farther, till out of sight,
+    And we stood alone in the silent night!
+    Often since, in the nights of June,
+    We sit on the sand and watch the moon,--
+
+    She has gone to the great Gromboolian Plain,
+    And we probably never shall meet again!
+    Oft, in the long still nights of June,
+    We sit on the rocks and watch the moon,--
+    She dwells by the streams of the Chankly Bore.
+    And we probably never shall see her more.
+        Ploffskin, Pluffskin, Pelican jee!
+        We think no Birds so happy as we!
+        Plumpskin, Ploshkin, Pelican jill!
+        We think so then, and we thought so still!

+                    I.
+
+    On the Coast of Coromandel
+        Where the early pumpkins blow,
+          In the middle of the woods
+      Lived the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò.
+    Two old chairs, and half a candle,
+    One old jug without a handle,--
+          These were all his worldly goods:
+          In the middle of the woods,
+          These were all the worldly goods
+      Of the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò,

+    Once, among the Bong-trees walking
+        Where the early pumpkins blow,
+          To a little heap of stones
+      Came the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò.
+    There he heard a Lady talking,
+    To some milk-white Hens of Dorking,--
+        "'Tis the Lady Jingly Jones!
+          On that little heap of stones
+          Sits the Lady Jingly Jones!"
+      Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò,
+      Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò.
+
+
+                    III.
+
+   "Lady Jingly! Lady Jingly!
+         Sitting where the pumpkins blow,
+           Will you come and be my wife?"
+       Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò.
+   "I am tired of living singly--
+    On this coast so wild and shingly,--
+          I'm a-weary of my life;
+          If you'll come and be my wife,
+          Quite serene would be my life!"
+      Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò,
+      Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò.
+
+
+                    IV.
+
+    "On this Coast of Coromandel
+         Shrimps and watercresses grow,
+           Prawns are plentiful and cheap,"
+       Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò.
+   "You shall have my chairs and candle,
+    And my jug without a handle!
+          Gaze upon the rolling deep
+         (Fish is plentiful and cheap);
+          As the sea, my love is deep!"
+      Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò,
+      Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò.
+
+
+                    V.
+
+    Lady Jingly answered sadly,
+         And her tears began to flow,--
+          "Your proposal comes too late,
+       Mr. Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò!
+    I would be your wife most gladly!"
+    (Here she twirled her fingers madly,)
+         "But in England I've a mate!
+          Yes! you've asked me far too late,
+          For in England I've a mate,
+      Mr. Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò!
+      Mr. Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò!
+
+
+                    VI.
+
+   "Mr. Jones (his name is Handel,--
+         Handel Jones, Esquire, & Co.)
+           Dorking fowls delights to send,
+       Mr. Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò!
+    Keep, oh, keep your chairs and candle,
+    And your jug without a handle,--
+          I can merely be your friend!
+          Should my Jones more Dorkings send,
+          I will give you three, my friend!
+      Mr. Yonghy-Bongy-Bò!
+      Mr. Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò!
+
+
+                    VII.
+
+   "Though you've such a tiny body,
+         And your head so large doth grow,--
+           Though your hat may blow away,
+       Mr. Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò!
+    Though you're such a Hoddy Doddy,
+    Yet I wish that I could modi-
+          fy the words I needs must say!
+          Will you please to go away?
+          That is all I have to say,
+      Mr. Yongby-Bonghy-Bò!
+      Mr. Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò!"
+
+
+                    VIII.
+
+    Down the slippery slopes of Myrtle,
+        Where the early pumpkins blow,
+          To the calm and silent sea
+       Fled the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò.
+    There, beyond the Bay of Gurtle,
+    Lay a large and lively Turtle.
+         "You're the Cove," he said, "for me;
+          On your back beyond the sea,
+          Turtle, you shall carry me!"
+      Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò,
+      Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò.
+
+              [Illustration]
+
+
+                    IX.
+
+    Through the silent-roaring ocean
+        Did the Turtle swiftly go;
+          Holding fast upon his shell
+      Rode the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò.
+    With a sad primaeval motion
+    Towards the sunset isles of Boshen
+          Still the Turtle bore him well.
+          Holding fast upon his shell,
+         "Lady Jingly Jones, farewell!"
+      Sang the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò,
+      Sang the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò.
+
+
+                    X.
+
+    From the Coast of Coromandel
+        Did that Lady never go;
+          On that heap of stones she mourns
+      For the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò.
+    On that Coast of Coromandel,
+    In his jug without a handle
+        Still she weeps, and daily moans;
+        On that little heap of stones
+        To her Dorking Hens she moans,
+          For the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò,
+          For the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bò.
+
+
+
+
+THE POBBLE WHO HAS NO TOES.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+                    I.
+
+    The Pobble who has no toes
+        Had once as many as we;
+    When they said, "Some day you may lose them all;"
+        He replied, "Fish fiddle de-dee!"
+    And his Aunt Jobiska made him drink
+    Lavender water tinged with pink;
+    For she said, "The World in general knows
+    There's nothing so good for a Pobble's toes!"
+
+
+                    II.
+
+    The Pobble who has no toes,
+        Swam across the Bristol Channel;
+    But before he set out he wrapped his nose
+        In a piece of scarlet flannel.
+    For his Aunt Jobiska said, "No harm
+    Can come to his toes if his nose is warm;
+    And it's perfectly known that a Pobble's toes
+    Are safe--provided he minds his nose."
+
+
+                    III.
+
+    The Pobble swam fast and well,
+        And when boats or ships came near him,
+    He tinkledy-binkledy-winkled a bell
+        So that all the world could hear him.
+    And all the Sailors and Admirals cried,
+    When they saw him nearing the further side,--
+   "He has gone to fish, for his Aunt Jobiska's
+    Runcible Cat with crimson whiskers!"
+
+
+                    IV.
+
+    But before he touched the shore,--
+        The shore of the Bristol Channel,
+    A sea-green Porpoise carried away
+        His wrapper of scarlet flannel.
+    And when he came to observe his feet,
+    Formerly garnished with toes so neat,
+    His face at once became forlorn
+    On perceiving that all his toes were gone!
+
+
+                    V.
+
+    And nobody ever knew,
+        From that dark day to the present,
+    Whoso had taken the Pobble's toes,
+        In a manner so far from pleasant.
+    Whether the shrimps or crawfish gray,
+    Or crafty Mermaids stole them away,
+    Nobody knew; and nobody knows
+    How the Pobble was robbed of his twice five toes!
+
+
+                    VI.
+
+    The Pobble who has no toes
+        Was placed in a friendly Bark,
+    And they rowed him back, and carried him up
+        To his Aunt Jobiska's Park.
+    And she made him a feast, at his earnest wish,
+    Of eggs and buttercups fried with fish;
+    And she said, "It's a fact the whole world knows,
+    That Pobbles are happier without their toes."
+
+
+
+
+THE NEW VESTMENTS.
+
+    There lived an old man in the Kingdom of Tess,
+    Who invented a purely original dress;
+    And when it was perfectly made and complete,
+    He opened the door and walked into the street.
+
+    By way of a hat he'd a loaf of Brown Bread,
+    In the middle of which he inserted his head;
+    His Shirt was made up of no end of dead Mice,
+    The warmth of whose skins was quite fluffy and nice;
+    His Drawers were of Rabbit-skins, so were his Shoes;
+    His Stockings were skins, but it is not known whose;
+    His Waistcoat and Trowsers were made of Pork Chops;
+    His Buttons were Jujubes and Chocolate Drops;
+    His Coat was all Pancakes, with Jam for a border,
+    And a girdle of Biscuits to keep it in order;
+    And he wore over all, as a screen from bad weather,
+    A Cloak of green Cabbage-leaves stitched all together.
+
+    He had walked a short way, when he heard a great noise,
+    Of all sorts of Beasticles, Birdlings, and Boys;
+    And from every long street and dark lane in the town
+    Beasts, Birdies, and Boys in a tumult rushed down.
+    Two Cows and a Calf ate his Cabbage-leaf Cloak;
+    Four Apes seized his Girdle, which vanished like smoke;
+    Three Kids ate up half of his Pancaky Coat,
+    And the tails were devour'd by an ancient He Goat;
+    An army of Dogs in a twinkling tore _up_ his
+    Pork Waistcoat and Trowsers to give to their Puppies;
+    And while they were growling, and mumbling the Chops,
+    Ten Boys prigged the Jujubes and Chocolate Drops.
+    He tried to run back to his house, but in vain,
+    For scores of fat Pigs came again and again:
+    They rushed out of stables and hovels and doors;
+    They tore off his stockings, his shoes, and his drawers;
+    And now from the housetops with screechings descend
+    Striped, spotted, white, black, and gray Cats without end:
+    They jumped on his shoulders and knocked off his hat,
+    When Crows, Ducks, and Hens made a mincemeat of that;
+    They speedily flew at his sleeves in a trice,
+    And utterly tore up his Shirt of dead Mice;
+    They swallowed the last of his Shirt with a squall,--
+    Whereon he ran home with no clothes on at all.
+
+    And he said to himself, as he bolted the door,
+   "I will not wear a similar dress any more,
+    Any more, any more, any more, never more!"
+
+
+
+
+MR. AND MRS. DISCOBBOLOS.
+
+                    I.
+
+    Mr. and Mrs. Discobbolos
+        Climbed to the top of a wall.
+      And they sate to watch the sunset sky,
+      And to hear the Nupiter Piffkin cry,
+        And the Biscuit Buffalo call.
+    They took up a roll and some Camomile tea,
+    And both were as happy as happy could be,
+            Till Mrs. Discobbolos said,--
+           "Oh! W! X! Y! Z!
+            It has just come into my head,
+      Suppose we should happen to fall!!!!!
+                        Darling Mr. Discobbolos!
+
+
+                    II.
+
+   "Suppose we should fall down flumpetty,
+        Just like pieces of stone,
+      On to the thorns, or into the moat,
+      What would become of your new green coat?
+        And might you not break a bone?
+    It never occurred to me before,
+    That perhaps we shall never go down any more!"
+            And Mrs. Discobbolos said,
+           "Oh! W! X! Y! Z!
+            What put it into your head
+      To climb up this wall, my own
+                        Darling Mr. Discobbolos?"
+
+
+                    III.
+
+    Mr. Discobbolos answered,
+       "At first it gave me pain,
+      And I felt my ears turn perfectly pink
+      When your exclamation made me think
+        We might never get down again!
+    But now I believe it is wiser far
+    To remain for ever just where we are."
+            And Mr. Discobbolos said,
+           "Oh! W! X! Y! Z!
+            It has just come into my head
+      We shall never go down again,
+                        Dearest Mrs. Discobbolos!"
+
+
+                    IV.
+
+    So Mr. and Mrs. Discobbolos
+        Stood up and began to sing,--
+     "Far away from hurry and strife
+      Here we will pass the rest of life,
+        Ding a dong, ding dong, ding!
+    We want no knives nor forks nor chairs,
+    No tables nor carpets nor household cares;
+            From worry of life we've fled;
+            Oh! W! X! Y! Z!
+            There is no more trouble ahead,
+      Sorrow or any such thing,
+                        For Mr. and Mrs. Discobbolos!"
+
+
+
+
+THE QUANGLE WANGLE'S HAT.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+                    I.
+
+    On the top of the Crumpetty Tree
+        The Quangle Wangle sat,
+    But his face you could not see,
+        On account of his Beaver Hat.
+    For his Hat was a hundred and two feet wide,
+    With ribbons and bibbons on every side,
+    And bells, and buttons, and loops, and lace,
+    So that nobody ever could see the face
+            Of the Quangle Wangle Quee.
+
+
+                    II.
+
+    The Quangle Wangle said
+        To himself on the Crumpetty Tree,
+    "Jam, and jelly, and bread
+        Are the best of food for me!
+    But the longer I live on this Crumpetty Tree
+    The plainer than ever it seems to me
+    That very few people come this way
+    And that life on the whole is far from gay!"
+            Said the Quangle Wangle Quee.
+
+
+                    III.
+
+    But there came to the Crumpetty Tree
+        Mr. and Mrs. Canary;
+    And they said, "Did ever you see
+        Any spot so charmingly airy?
+    May we build a nest on your lovely Hat?
+    Mr. Quangle Wangle, grant us that!
+    O please let us come and build a nest
+    Of whatever material suits you best,
+            Mr. Quangle Wangle Quee!"
+
+
+                    IV.
+
+    And besides, to the Crumpetty Tree
+        Came the Stork, the Duck, and the Owl;
+    The Snail and the Bumble-Bee,
+        The Frog and the Fimble Fowl
+    (The Fimble Fowl, with a Corkscrew leg);
+    And all of them said, "We humbly beg
+    We may build our homes on your lovely Hat,--
+    Mr. Quangle Wangle, grant us that!
+       Mr. Quangle Wangle Quee!"
+
+
+                    V.
+
+    And the Golden Grouse came there,
+        And the Pobble who has no toes,
+    And the small Olympian bear,
+        And the Dong with a luminous nose.
+    And the Blue Baboon who played the flute,
+    And the Orient Calf from the Land of Tute,
+    And the Attery Squash, and the Bisky Bat,--
+    All came and built on the lovely Hat
+      Of the Quangle Wangle Quee.
+
+                    VI.
+
+    And the Quangle Wangle said
+        To himself on the Crumpetty Tree,
+    "When all these creatures move
+        What a wonderful noise there'll be!"
+    And at night by the light of the Mulberry moon
+    They danced to the Flute of the Blue Baboon,
+    On the broad green leaves of the Crumpetty Tree,
+    And all were as happy as happy could be,
+      With the Quangle Wangle Quee.

+
+THE CUMMERBUND.
+An Indian Poem.
+
+                    I.
+
+She sate upon her Dobie,
+    To watch the Evening Star,
+And all the Punkahs, as they passed,
+    Cried, "My! how fair you are!"
+Around her bower, with quivering leaves,
+    The tall Kamsamahs grew,
+And Kitmutgars in wild festoons
+    Hung down from Tchokis blue.
+
+
+                    II.
+
+Below her home the river rolled
+    With soft meloobious sound,
+Where golden-finned Chuprassies swam,
+    In myriads circling round.
+Above, on tallest trees remote
+    Green Ayahs perched alone,
+And all night long the Mussak moan'd
+    Its melancholy tone.
+
+
+                    III.
+
+And where the purple Nullahs threw
+    Their branches far and wide,
+And silvery Goreewallahs flew
+    In silence, side by side,
+The little Bheesties' twittering cry
+    Rose on the flagrant air,
+And oft the angry Jampan howled
+    Deep in his hateful lair.
+
+
+                    IV.
+
+She sate upon her Dobie,
+    She heard the Nimmak hum,
+When all at once a cry arose,
+    "The Cummerbund is come!"
+In vain she fled: with open jaws
+    The angry monster followed,
+And so (before assistance came)
+    That Lady Fair was swollowed.
+
+
+                    V.
+
+They sought in vain for even a bone
+    Respectfully to bury;
+They said, "Hers was a dreadful fate!"
+    (And Echo answered, "Very.")
+They nailed her Dobie to the wall,
+    Where last her form was seen,
+And underneath they wrote these words,
+    In yellow, blue, and green:
+"Beware, ye Fair! Ye Fair, beware!
+    Nor sit out late at night,
+Lest horrid Cummerbunds should come,
+    And swollow you outright."

+
+    When he writes a copy in round-hand size,

+1.F.
+
+1.F.1.  Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable
+effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread
+public domain works in creating the Project Gutenberg-tm
+collection.  Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may contain
+"Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate or
+corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other intellectual
+property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other medium, a
+computer virus, or computer codes that damage or cannot be read by
+your equipment.

+Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any Defect you cause.
+
+
+Section  2.  Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers.  It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come.  In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at https://www.gutenberg.org/fundraising/pglaf.
+
+

+501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the

+
+Section 4.  Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment.  Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States.  Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements.  We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance.  To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit https://www.gutenberg.org/fundraising/donate
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States.  U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses.  Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including including checks, online payments and credit card
+donations.  To donate, please visit:
+https://www.gutenberg.org/fundraising/donate
+
+
+Section 5.  General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone.  For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included.  Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+     https://www.gutenberg.org
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.

+				<h3>THE DONG WITH A LUMINOUS NOSE.</h3>
+				<p>
+				<span class="largecap">W</span>hen awful darkness and silence reign<br />
+				Over the great Gromboolian plain,<br />
+				<span class="i2">Through the long, long wintry nights;</span>
+				When the angry breakers roar<br />
+				As they beat on the rocky shore;<br />
+				<span class="i2">When Storm-clouds brood on the towering heights</span>
+				Of the Hills of the Chankly Bore,&#8212;
+				</p>
+				<p>
+				Then, through the vast and gloomy dark<br />
+				There moves what seems a fiery spark,&#8212;<br />
+				<span class="i2">A lonely spark with silvery rays</span>
+				<a class="pagenumber" name="page342" id="page342" title="342"></a>
+				<span class="i4">Piercing the coal-black night,&#8212;</span>
+				<span class="i4">A Meteor strange and bright:</span>
+				<span class="i2">Hither and thither the vision strays,</span>
+				<span class="i4">A single lurid light.</span>
+				</p>
+				<p>
+				Slowly it wanders, pauses, creeps,&#8212;<br />
+				Anon it sparkles, flashes, and leaps;<br />
+				And ever as onward it gleaming goes<br />
+				A light on the Bong-tree stems it throws.<br />
+				And those who watch at that midnight hour<br />
+				From Hall or Terrace or lofty Tower,<br />
+				Cry, as the wild light passes along,&#8212;<br />
+				<span class="i4">"The Dong! the Dong!</span>
+				<span class="i2">The wandering Dong through the forest goes!</span>
+				<span class="i4">The Dong! the Dong!</span>
+				<span class="i2">The Dong with a luminous Nose!"</span>
+				</p>
+				<p>
+				<span class="i4">Long years ago</span>
+				<span class="i2">The Dong was happy and gay,</span>
+				Till he fell in love with a Jumbly Girl<br />
+				<span class="i2">Who came to those shores one day.</span>
+				For the Jumblies came in a sieve, they did,&#8212;<br />
+				Landing at eve near the Zemmery Fidd<br />
+				<span class="i4">Where the Oblong Oysters grow,</span>
+				<span class="i2">And the rocks are smooth and gray.</span>
+				And all the woods and the valleys rang<br />
+				With the Chorus they daily and nightly sang,&#8212;<br />
+				<i><span class="i6">"Far and few, far and few,</span>
+				<span class="i6">Are the lands where the Jumblies live;</span>
+				<span class="i6">Their heads are green, and their hands are blue,</span>
+				<span class="i6">And they went to sea in a sieve."</span></i>
+				</p>
+				<p>
+				<a class="pagenumber" name="page343" id="page343" title="343"></a>
+				Happily, happily passed those days!<br />
+				<span class="i8">While the cheerful Jumblies staid;</span>
+				<span class="i4">They danced in circlets all night long,</span>
+				<span class="i4">To the plaintive pipe of the lively Dong,</span>
+				<span class="i8">In moonlight, shine, or shade.</span>
+				For day and night he was always there<br />
+				By the side of the Jumbly Girl so fair,<br />
+				With her sky-blue hands and her sea-green hair;<br />
+				Till the morning came of that hateful day<br />
+				When the Jumblies sailed in their sieve away,<br />
+				And the Dong was left on the cruel shore<br />
+				Gazing, gazing for evermore,&#8212;<br />
+				Ever keeping his weary eyes on<br />
+				That pea-green sail on the far horizon,&#8212;<br />
+				Singing the Jumbly Chorus still<br />
+				As he sate all day on the grassy hill,&#8212;<br />
+				<i><span class="i10">"Far and few, far and few,</span>
+				<span class="i10">Are the lands where the Jumblies live;</span>
+				<span class="i10">Their heads are green, and their hands are blue,</span>
+				<span class="i10">And they went to sea in a sieve."</span></i>
+				</p>
+				<p>
+				But when the sun was low in the West,<br />
+				<span class="i4">The Dong arose and said,&#8212;</span>
+				&#8212;"What little sense I once possessed<br />
+				<span class="i4">Has quite gone out of my head!"</span>
+				And since that day he wanders still<br />
+				By lake and forest, marsh and hill,<br />
+				Singing, "O somewhere, in valley or plain,<br />
+				Might I find my Jumbly Girl again!<br />
+				For ever I'll seek by lake and shore<br />
+				Till I find my Jumbly Girl once more!"
+				<a class="pagenumber" name="page344" id="page344" title="344"></a>
+				</p>
+				<p>
+				<span class="i2">Playing a pipe with silvery squeaks,</span>
+				<span class="i2">Since then his Jumbly Girl he seeks;</span>
+				<span class="i2">And because by night he could not see,</span>
+				<span class="i2">He gathered the bark of the Twangum Tree</span>
+				<span class="i4">On the flowery plain that grows.</span>
+				<span class="i4">And he wove him a wondrous Nose,&#8212;</span>
+				<span class="i2">A Nose as strange as a Nose could be!</span>
+				Of vast proportions and painted red,<br />
+				And tied with cords to the back of his head.<br />
+				<span class="i2">&#8212;In a hollow rounded space it ended</span>
+				<span class="i2">With a luminous Lamp within suspended,</span>
+				<span class="i4">All fenced about</span>
+				<span class="i4">With a bandage stout</span>
+				<span class="i4">To prevent the wind from blowing it out;</span>

+				<h3>
+				THE TWO OLD BACHELORS.
+				</h3>
+				<p>
+				<span class="largecap">T</span>wo old Bachelors were living in one house;<br />
+				One caught a Muffin, the other caught a Mouse.<br />
+				Said he who caught the Muffin to him who caught the Mouse,&#8212;<br />
+				"This happens just in time! For we've nothing in the house,<br />
+				Save a tiny slice of lemon and a teaspoonful of honey,<br />
+				And what to do for dinner&#8212;since we haven't any money?<br />
+				And what can we expect if we haven't any dinner,<br />
+				But to lose our teeth and eyelashes and keep on growing thinner?"
+				</p>
+				<p>
+				Said he who caught the Mouse to him who caught the Muffin,&#8212;<br />
+				"We might cook this little Mouse, if we only had some Stuffin'!<br />
+				If we had but Sage and Onion we could do extremely well;<br />
+				But how to get that Stuffin' it is difficult to tell!"
+				</p>
+				<p>
+				Those two old Bachelors ran quickly to the town<br />
+				And asked for Sage and Onion as they wandered up and down;<br />
+				<a class="pagenumber" name="page347" id="page347" title="347"></a>
+				They borrowed two large Onions, but no Sage was to be found<br />
+				In the Shops, or in the Market, or in all the Gardens round.
+				</p>
+				<p>
+				But some one said, "A hill there is, a little to the north,<br />
+				And to its purpledicular top a narrow way leads forth;<br />
+				And there among the rugged rocks abides an ancient Sage,&#8212;<br />
+				An earnest Man, who reads all day a most perplexing page.<br />
+				Climb up, and seize him by the toes,&#8212;all studious as he sits,&#8212;<br />
+				And pull him down, and chop him into endless little bits!<br />
+				Then mix him with your Onion (cut up likewise into Scraps),&#8212;<br />
+				When your Stuffin' will be ready, and very good&#8212;perhaps."
+				</p>
+				<p>
+				Those two old Bachelors without loss of time<br />
+				The nearly purpledicular crags at once began to climb;<br />
+				And at the top, among the rocks, all seated in a nook,<br />
+				They saw that Sage a-reading of a most enormous book.
+				</p>
+				<p>
+				"You earnest Sage!" aloud they cried, "your book you've read enough in!<br />
+				We wish to chop you into bits to mix you into Stuffin'!"
+				</p>
+				<p>
+				But that old Sage looked calmly up, and with his awful book,<br />
+				At those two Bachelors' bald heads a certain aim he took;<br />
+				And over Crag and precipice they rolled promiscuous down,&#8212;<br />
+				At once they rolled, and never stopped in lane or field or town;<br />
+				And when they reached their house, they found (besides their want of Stuffin'),<br />
+				The Mouse had fled&#8212;and, previously, had eaten up the Muffin.
+				</p>
+				<p>
+				They left their home in silence by the once convivial door;<br />
+				And from that hour those Bachelors were never heard of more.

+				No other Birds so grand we see!<br />
+				None but we have feet like fins!<br />
+				With lovely leathery throats and chins!<br />
+				<span class="i2">Ploffskin, Pluffskin, Pelican jee!</span>
+				<span class="i2">We think no Birds so happy as we!</span>
+				<span class="i2">Plumpskin, Ploshkin, Pelican Jill!</span>
+				<span class="i2">We think so then, and we thought so still</span>
+				</p>
+				<p>
+				We live on the Nile. The Nile we love.<br />
+				By night we sleep on the cliffs above;<br />
+				By day we fish, and at eve we stand<br />
+				On long bare islands of yellow sand.<br />
+				And when the sun sinks slowly down,<br />
+				And the great rock walls grow dark and brown,<br />
+				<a class="pagenumber" name="page350" id="page350" title="350"></a>
+				Where the purple river rolls fast and dim<br />
+				And the Ivory Ibis starlike skim,<br />
+				Wing to wing we dance around,<br />
+				Stamping our feet with a flumpy sound,<br />
+				Opening our mouths as Pelicans ought;<br />
+				And this is the song we nightly snort,&#8212;<br />
+				<span class="i4">Ploffskin, Pluffskin, Pelican jee!</span>
+				<span class="i4">We think no Birds so happy as we!</span>
+				<span class="i4">Plumpskin, Ploshkin, Pelican jill!</span>
+				<span class="i4">We think so then, and we thought so still!</span>
+				</p>
+				<p>
+				Last year came out our Daughter Dell,<br />
+				And all the Birds received her well.<br />
+				To do her honor a feast we made<br />
+				For every bird that can swim or wade,&#8212;<br />
+				Herons and Gulls, and Cormorants black,<br />
+				Cranes, and Flamingoes with scarlet back,<br />
+				Plovers and Storks, and Geese in clouds,<br />
+				Swans and Dilberry Ducks in crowds:<br />
+				Thousands of Birds in wondrous flight!<br />
+				They ate and drank and danced all night,<br />
+				And echoing back from the rocks you heard<br />
+				Multitude-echoes from Bird and Bird,&#8212;<br />
+				<span class="i4">Ploffskin, Pluffskin, Pelican jee!</span>
+				<span class="i4">We think no Birds so happy as we!</span>
+				<span class="i4">Plumpskin, Ploshkin, Pelican jill!</span>
+				<span class="i4">We think so then, and we thought so still!</span>
+				</p>
+				<p>
+				Yes, they came; and among the rest<br />
+				The King of the Cranes all grandly dressed.<br />
+				<a class="pagenumber" name="page351" id="page351" title="351"></a>
+				Such a lovely tail! Its feathers float<br />
+				Between the ends of his blue dress-coat;<br />
+				With pea-green trowsers all so neat,<br />
+				And a delicate frill to hide his feet<br />
+				(For though no one speaks of it, every one knows<br />
+				He has got no webs between his toes).<br />
+				</p>
+				<p>
+				As soon as he saw our Daughter Dell,<br />
+				In violent love that Crane King fell,&#8212;<br />
+				On seeing her waddling form so fair,<br />
+				With a wreath of shrimps in her short white hair.<br />
+				And before the end of the next long day<br />
+				Our Dell had given her heart away;<br />
+				For the King of the Cranes had won that heart<br />
+				With a Crocodile's egg and a large fish-tart.<br />
+				She vowed to marry the King of the Cranes,<br />
+				Leaving the Nile for stranger plains;<br />
+				And away they flew in a gathering crowd<br />
+				Of endless birds in a lengthening cloud.<br />
+				<span class="i4">Ploffskin, Pluffskin, Pelican jee!</span>
+				<span class="i4">We think no Birds so happy as we!</span>
+				<span class="i4">Plumpskin, Ploshkin, Pelican jill!</span>
+				<span class="i4">We think so then, and we thought so still!</span>
+				</p>
+				<p>
+				And far away in the twilight sky<br />
+				We heard them singing a lessening cry,&#8212;<br />
+				Farther and farther, till out of sight,<br />
+				And we stood alone in the silent night!<br />
+				Often since, in the nights of June,<br />
+				We sit on the sand and watch the moon,&#8212;<br />
+				<a class="pagenumber" name="page352" id="page352" title="352"></a>
+				She has gone to the great Gromboolian Plain,<br />
+				And we probably never shall meet again!<br />
+				Oft, in the long still nights of June,<br />
+				We sit on the rocks and watch the moon,&#8212;<br />
+				She dwells by the streams of the Chankly Bore.<br />
+				And we probably never shall see her more.<br />
+				<span class="i2">Ploffskin, Pluffskin, Pelican jee!</span>
+				<span class="i2">We think no Birds so happy as we!</span>
+				<span class="i2">Plumpskin, Ploshkin, Pelican jill!</span>

+				And he wore over all, as a screen from bad weather,<br />
+				A Cloak of green Cabbage-leaves stitched all together.
+				</p>
+				<p>
+				He had walked a short way, when he heard a great noise,<br />
+				Of all sorts of Beasticles, Birdlings, and Boys;<br />
+				And from every long street and dark lane in the town<br />
+				Beasts, Birdies, and Boys in a tumult rushed down.<br />
+				Two Cows and a Calf ate his Cabbage-leaf Cloak;<br />
+				Four Apes seized his Girdle, which vanished like smoke;<br />
+				<a class="pagenumber" name="page364" id="page364" title="364"></a>
+				Three Kids ate up half of his Pancaky Coat,<br />
+				And the tails were devour'd by an ancient He Goat;<br />
+				An army of Dogs in a twinkling tore <i>up</i> his<br />
+				Pork Waistcoat and Trowsers to give to their Puppies;<br />
+				And while they were growling, and mumbling the Chops,<br />
+				Ten Boys prigged the Jujubes and Chocolate Drops.<br />
+				He tried to run back to his house, but in vain,<br />
+				For scores of fat Pigs came again and again:<br />
+				They rushed out of stables and hovels and doors;<br />
+				They tore off his stockings, his shoes, and his drawers;<br />
+				And now from the housetops with screechings descend<br />
+				Striped, spotted, white, black, and gray Cats without end:<br />
+				They jumped on his shoulders and knocked off his hat,<br />
+				When Crows, Ducks, and Hens made a mincemeat of that;<br />
+				They speedily flew at his sleeves in a trice,<br />
+				And utterly tore up his Shirt of dead Mice;<br />
+				They swallowed the last of his Shirt with a squall,&#8212;<br />
+				Whereon he ran home with no clothes on at all.
+				</p>
+				<p>
+				And he said to himself, as he bolted the door,<br />
+				"I will not wear a similar dress any more,<br />
+				Any more, any more, any more, never more!"

+Gutenberg-tm electronic works.  Nearly all the individual works in the
+collection are in the public domain in the United States.  If an
+individual work is in the public domain in the United States and you are
+located in the United States, we do not claim a right to prevent you from
+copying, distributing, performing, displaying or creating derivative
+works based on the work as long as all references to Project Gutenberg
+are removed.  Of course, we hope that you will support the Project
+Gutenberg-tm mission of promoting free access to electronic works by

+this agreement for keeping the Project Gutenberg-tm name associated with
+the work.  You can easily comply with the terms of this agreement by

+with this eBook or online at www.gutenberg.org
+
+1.E.2.  If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is derived
+from the public domain (does not contain a notice indicating that it is
+posted with permission of the copyright holder), the work can be copied
+and distributed to anyone in the United States without paying any fees
+or charges.  If you are redistributing or providing access to a work
+with the phrase "Project Gutenberg" associated with or appearing on the
+work, you must comply either with the requirements of paragraphs 1.E.1

+copy, a means of exporting a copy, or a means of obtaining a copy upon
+request, of the work in its original "Plain Vanilla ASCII" or other
+form.  Any alternate format must include the full Project Gutenberg-tm
+License as specified in paragraph 1.E.1.

+     address specified in Section 4, "Information about donations to
+     the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation."
+
+- You provide a full refund of any money paid by a user who notifies
+     you in writing (or by e-mail) within 30 days of receipt that s/he
+     does not agree to the terms of the full Project Gutenberg-tm
+     License.  You must require such a user to return or
+     destroy all copies of the works possessed in a physical medium
+     and discontinue all use of and all access to other copies of
+     Project Gutenberg-tm works.
+
+- You provide, in accordance with paragraph 1.F.3, a full refund of any
+     money paid for a work or a replacement copy, if a defect in the

+1.F.
+
+1.F.1.  Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable
+effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread
+public domain works in creating the Project Gutenberg-tm
+collection.  Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may contain
+"Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate or
+corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other intellectual
+property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other medium, a
+computer virus, or computer codes that damage or cannot be read by
+your equipment.
+
+1.F.2.  LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the "Right
+of Replacement or Refund" described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the Project
+Gutenberg-tm trademark, and any other party distributing a Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic work under this agreement, disclaim all
+liability to you for damages, costs and expenses, including legal
+fees.  YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR NEGLIGENCE, STRICT
+LIABILITY, BREACH OF WARRANTY OR BREACH OF CONTRACT EXCEPT THOSE
+PROVIDED IN PARAGRAPH F3.  YOU AGREE THAT THE FOUNDATION, THE
+TRADEMARK OWNER, AND ANY DISTRIBUTOR UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT BE
+LIABLE TO YOU FOR ACTUAL, DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR
+INCIDENTAL DAMAGES EVEN IF YOU GIVE NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
+DAMAGE.
+
+1.F.3.  LIMITED RIGHT OF REPLACEMENT OR REFUND - If you discover a
+defect in this electronic work within 90 days of receiving it, you can
+receive a refund of the money (if any) you paid for it by sending a
+written explanation to the person you received the work from.  If you
+received the work on a physical medium, you must return the medium with
+your written explanation.  The person or entity that provided you with
+the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in lieu of a
+refund.  If you received the work electronically, the person or entity
+providing it to you may choose to give you a second opportunity to
+receive the work electronically in lieu of a refund.  If the second copy
+is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing without further
+opportunities to fix the problem.
+
+1.F.4.  Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth
+in paragraph 1.F.3, this work is provided to you 'AS-IS,' WITH NO OTHER
+WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO
+WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTIBILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PURPOSE.
+
+1.F.5.  Some states do not allow disclaimers of certain implied
+warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of damages.
+If any disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement violates the
+law of the state applicable to this agreement, the agreement shall be
+interpreted to make the maximum disclaimer or limitation permitted by
+the applicable state law.  The invalidity or unenforceability of any
+provision of this agreement shall not void the remaining provisions.
+
+1.F.6.  INDEMNITY - You agree to indemnify and hold the Foundation, the
+trademark owner, any agent or employee of the Foundation, anyone
+providing copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in accordance
+with this agreement, and any volunteers associated with the production,
+promotion and distribution of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works,
+harmless from all liability, costs and expenses, including legal fees,
+that arise directly or indirectly from any of the following which you do
+or cause to occur: (a) distribution of this or any Project Gutenberg-tm
+work, (b) alteration, modification, or additions or deletions to any
+Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any Defect you cause.
+
+
+Section  2.  Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers.  It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come.  In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at https://www.gutenberg.org/fundraising/pglaf.
+
+
+Section 3.  Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive
+Foundation
+
+The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non profit
+501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
+state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
+Revenue Service.  The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification
+number is 64-6221541.  Contributions to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent
+permitted by U.S. federal laws and your state's laws.
+
+The Foundation's principal office is located at 4557 Melan Dr. S.
+Fairbanks, AK, 99712., but its volunteers and employees are scattered
+throughout numerous locations.  Its business office is located at
+809 North 1500 West, Salt Lake City, UT 84116, (801) 596-1887, email
+business@pglaf.org.  Email contact links and up to date contact

+
+For additional contact information:
+     Dr. Gregory B. Newby
+     Chief Executive and Director
+     gbnewby@pglaf.org
+
+Section 4.  Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment.  Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States.  Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements.  We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance.  To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit https://www.gutenberg.org/fundraising/pglaf
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States.  U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses.  Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including including checks, online payments and credit card
+donations.  To donate, please visit:
+https://www.gutenberg.org/fundraising/donate
+
+
+Section 5.  General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone.  For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included.  Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+Each eBook is in a subdirectory of the same number as the eBook's
+eBook number, often in several formats including plain vanilla ASCII,
+compressed (zipped), HTML and others.
+
+Corrected EDITIONS of our eBooks replace the old file and take over
+the old filename and etext number.  The replaced older file is renamed.
+VERSIONS based on separate sources are treated as new eBooks receiving
+new filenames and etext numbers.
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+<a href="https://www.gutenberg.org">https://www.gutenberg.org</a>
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
+
+EBooks posted prior to November 2003, with eBook numbers BELOW #10000,
+are filed in directories based on their release date.  If you want to
+download any of these eBooks directly, rather than using the regular
+search system you may utilize the following addresses and just
+download by the etext year.

+filed in a different way.  The year of a release date is no longer part
+of the directory path.  The path is based on the etext number (which is
+identical to the filename).  The path to the file is made up of single
+digits corresponding to all but the last digit in the filename.  For
+example an eBook of filename 10234 would be found at:
+
+https://www.gutenberg.org/dirs/1/0/2/3/10234
+
+or filename 24689 would be found at:
+https://www.gutenberg.org/dirs/2/4/6/8/24689
+
+An alternative method of locating eBooks:
+<a href="https://www.gutenberg.org/dirs/GUTINDEX.ALL">https://www.gutenberg.org/dirs/GUTINDEX.ALL</a>

+THE DONG WITH A LUMINOUS NOSE.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+    When awful darkness and silence reign
+    Over the great Gromboolian plain,
+        Through the long, long wintry nights;
+    When the angry breakers roar
+    As they beat on the rocky shore;
+        When Storm-clouds brood on the towering heights
+    Of the Hills of the Chankly Bore,--
+
+    Then, through the vast and gloomy dark
+    There moves what seems a fiery spark,--
+        A lonely spark with silvery rays
+        Piercing the coal-black night,--
+        A Meteor strange and bright:
+    Hither and thither the vision strays,
+        A single lurid light.
+
+    Slowly it wanders, pauses, creeps,--
+    Anon it sparkles, flashes, and leaps;
+    And ever as onward it gleaming goes
+    A light on the Bong-tree stems it throws.
+    And those who watch at that midnight hour
+    From Hall or Terrace or lofty Tower,
+    Cry, as the wild light passes along,--
+       "The Dong! the Dong!
+      The wandering Dong through the forest goes!
+        The Dong! the Dong!
+      The Dong with a luminous Nose!"
+
+        Long years ago
+      The Dong was happy and gay,
+    Till he fell in love with a Jumbly Girl
+      Who came to those shores one day.
+    For the Jumblies came in a sieve, they did,--
+    Landing at eve near the Zemmery Fidd
+        Where the Oblong Oysters grow,
+      And the rocks are smooth and gray.
+    And all the woods and the valleys rang
+    With the Chorus they daily and nightly sang,--
+        "_Far and few, far and few,
+          Are the lands where the Jumblies live;
+          Their heads are green, and their hands are blue,
+          And they went to sea in a sieve._"
+
+    Happily, happily passed those days!
+      While the cheerful Jumblies staid;
+        They danced in circlets all night long,
+        To the plaintive pipe of the lively Dong,
+      In moonlight, shine, or shade.
+    For day and night he was always there
+    By the side of the Jumbly Girl so fair,
+    With her sky-blue hands and her sea-green hair;
+    Till the morning came of that hateful day
+    When the Jumblies sailed in their sieve away,
+    And the Dong was left on the cruel shore
+    Gazing, gazing for evermore,--
+    Ever keeping his weary eyes on
+    That pea-green sail on the far horizon,--
+    Singing the Jumbly Chorus still
+    As he sate all day on the grassy hill,--
+        "_Far and few, far and few,
+          Are the lands where the Jumblies live;
+          Their heads are green, and their hands are blue,
+          And they went to sea in a sieve_."
+
+    But when the sun was low in the West,
+        The Dong arose and said,--
+    "What little sense I once possessed
+        Has quite gone out of my head!"
+    And since that day he wanders still
+    By lake and forest, marsh and hill,
+    Singing, "O somewhere, in valley or plain,
+    Might I find my Jumbly Girl again!
+    For ever I'll seek by lake and shore
+    Till I find my Jumbly Girl once more!"
+
+        Playing a pipe with silvery squeaks,
+        Since then his Jumbly Girl he seeks;
+        And because by night he could not see,
+        He gathered the bark of the Twangum Tree
+          On the flowery plain that grows.
+          And he wove him a wondrous Nose,--
+        A Nose as strange as a Nose could be!
+
+    Of vast proportions and painted red,
+    And tied with cords to the back of his head.
+        In a hollow rounded space it ended
+        With a luminous Lamp within suspended,
+            All fenced about
+            With a bandage stout
+            To prevent the wind from blowing it out;
+        And with holes all round to send the light
+        In gleaming rays on the dismal night
+
+    And now each night, and all night long,
+    Over those plains still roams the Dong;
+    And above the wail of the Chimp and Snipe
+    You may hear the squeak of his plaintive pipe,
+    While ever he seeks, but seeks in vain,
+    To meet with his Jumbly Girl again;
+    Lonely and wild, all night he goes,--
+    The Dong with a luminous Nose!
+    And all who watch at the midnight hour,
+    From Hall or Terrace or lofty Tower,
+    Cry, as they trace the Meteor bright,
+    Moving along through the dreary night,--
+       "This is the hour when forth he goes,
+        The Dong with a luminous Nose!
+        Yonder, over the plain he goes,--
+            He goes!
+            He goes,--
+        The Dong with a luminous Nose!"
+
+
+
+
+THE TWO OLD BACHELORS.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+Two old Bachelors were living in one house;
+One caught a Muffin, the other caught a Mouse.
+Said he who caught the Muffin to him who caught the Mouse,--
+"This happens just in time! For we've nothing in the house,
+Save a tiny slice of lemon and a teaspoonful of honey,
+And what to do for dinner--since we haven't any money?
+And what can we expect if we haven't any dinner,
+But to lose our teeth and eyelashes and keep on growing thinner?"
+
+Said he who caught the Mouse to him who caught the Muffin,--
+"We might cook this little Mouse, if we only had some Stuffin'!
+If we had but Sage and Onion we could do extremely well;
+But how to get that Stuffin' it is difficult to tell!"
+
+Those two old Bachelors ran quickly to the town
+And asked for Sage and Onion as they wandered up and down;
+They borrowed two large Onions, but no Sage was to be found
+In the Shops, or in the Market, or in all the Gardens round.
+
+But some one said, "A hill there is, a little to the north,
+And to its purpledicular top a narrow way leads forth;
+And there among the rugged rocks abides an ancient Sage,--
+An earnest Man, who reads all day a most perplexing page.
+Climb up, and seize him by the toes,--all studious as he sits,--
+And pull him down, and chop him into endless little bits!
+Then mix him with your Onion (cut up likewise into Scraps),--
+When your Stuffin' will be ready, and very good--perhaps."
+
+Those two old Bachelors without loss of time
+The nearly purpledicular crags at once began to climb;
+And at the top, among the rocks, all seated in a nook,
+They saw that Sage a-reading of a most enormous book.
+
+"You earnest Sage!" aloud they cried, "your book you've read enough in!
+We wish to chop you into bits to mix you into Stuffin'!"
+
+But that old Sage looked calmly up, and with his awful book,
+At those two Bachelors' bald heads a certain aim he took;
+And over Crag and precipice they rolled promiscuous down,--
+At once they rolled, and never stopped in lane or field or town;
+And when they reached their house, they found (besides their want
+                                                          of Stuffin'),
+The Mouse had fled--and, previously, had eaten up the Muffin.
+
+They left their home in silence by the once convivial door;
+And from that hour those Bachelors were never heard of more.
+

+
+THE PELICAN CHORUS.
+
+    King and Queen of the Pelicans we;
+     No other Birds so grand we see!
+    None but we have feet like fins!
+    With lovely leathery throats and chins!
+        Ploffskin, Pluffskin, Pelican jee!
+        We think no Birds so happy as we!
+        Plumpskin, Ploshkin, Pelican Jill!
+        We think so then, and we thought so still
+
+    We live on the Nile. The Nile we love.
+    By night we sleep on the cliffs above;
+    By day we fish, and at eve we stand
+    On long bare islands of yellow sand.
+    And when the sun sinks slowly down,
+    And the great rock walls grow dark and brown,
+
+    Where the purple river rolls fast and dim
+    And the Ivory Ibis starlike skim,
+    Wing to wing we dance around,
+    Stamping our feet with a flumpy sound,
+    Opening our mouths as Pelicans ought;
+    And this is the song we nightly snort,--
+        Ploffskin, Pluffskin, Pelican jee!
+        We think no Birds so happy as we!
+        Plumpskin, Ploshkin, Pelican jill!
+        We think so then, and we thought so still!
+
+    Last year came out our Daughter Dell,
+    And all the Birds received her well.
+    To do her honor a feast we made
+    For every bird that can swim or wade,--
+    Herons and Gulls, and Cormorants black,
+    Cranes, and Flamingoes with scarlet back,
+    Plovers and Storks, and Geese in clouds,
+    Swans and Dilberry Ducks in crowds:
+    Thousands of Birds in wondrous flight!
+    They ate and drank and danced all night,
+    And echoing back from the rocks you heard
+    Multitude-echoes from Bird and Bird,--
+        Ploffskin, Pluffskin, Pelican jee!
+        We think no Birds so happy as we!
+        Plumpskin, Ploshkin, Pelican jill!
+        We think so then, and we thought so still!
+
+    Yes, they came; and among the rest
+    The King of the Cranes all grandly dressed.
+    Such a lovely tail! Its feathers float
+    Between the ends of his blue dress-coat;
+    With pea-green trowsers all so neat,
+    And a delicate frill to hide his feet
+    (For though no one speaks of it, every one knows
+    He has got no webs between his toes).
+
+    As soon as he saw our Daughter Dell,
+    In violent love that Crane King fell,--
+    On seeing her waddling form so fair,
+    With a wreath of shrimps in her short white hair.
+    And before the end of the next long day
+    Our Dell had given her heart away;
+    For the King of the Cranes had won that heart
+    With a Crocodile's egg and a large fish-tart.
+    She vowed to marry the King of the Cranes,
+    Leaving the Nile for stranger plains;
+    And away they flew in a gathering crowd
+    Of endless birds in a lengthening cloud.
+        Ploffskin, Pluffskin, Pelican jee!
+        We think no Birds so happy as we!
+        Plumpskin, Ploshkin, Pelican jill!
+        We think so then, and we thought so still!
+
+    And far away in the twilight sky
+    We heard them singing a lessening cry,--
+    Farther and farther, till out of sight,
+    And we stood alone in the silent night!
+    Often since, in the nights of June,
+    We sit on the sand and watch the moon,--
+
+    She has gone to the great Gromboolian Plain,
+    And we probably never shall meet again!
+    Oft, in the long still nights of June,
+    We sit on the rocks and watch the moon,--
+    She dwells by the streams of the Chankly Bore.
+    And we probably never shall see her more.
+        Ploffskin, Pluffskin, Pelican jee!
+        We think no Birds so happy as we!
+        Plumpskin, Ploshkin, Pelican jill!
+        We think so then, and we thought so still!

+THE COURTSHIP OF THE YONGHY-BONGHY-BO.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+                    I.
+
+    On the Coast of Coromandel
+        Where the early pumpkins blow,
+          In the middle of the woods
+      Lived the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo.
+    Two old chairs, and half a candle,
+    One old jug without a handle,--
+          These were all his worldly goods:
+          In the middle of the woods,
+          These were all the worldly goods
+      Of the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo,
+      Of the Yonghy-Bonghy Bo.
+
+
+                    II.
+
+    Once, among the Bong-trees walking
+        Where the early pumpkins blow,
+          To a little heap of stones
+      Came the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo.
+    There he heard a Lady talking,
+    To some milk-white Hens of Dorking,--
+        "'Tis the Lady Jingly Jones!
+          On that little heap of stones
+          Sits the Lady Jingly Jones!"
+      Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo,
+      Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo.
+
+
+                    III.
+
+   "Lady Jingly! Lady Jingly!
+         Sitting where the pumpkins blow,
+           Will you come and be my wife?"
+       Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo.
+   "I am tired of living singly--
+    On this coast so wild and shingly,--
+          I'm a-weary of my life;
+          If you'll come and be my wife,
+          Quite serene would be my life!"
+      Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo,
+      Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo.
+
+
+                    IV.
+
+    "On this Coast of Coromandel
+         Shrimps and watercresses grow,
+           Prawns are plentiful and cheap,"
+       Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo.
+   "You shall have my chairs and candle,
+    And my jug without a handle!
+          Gaze upon the rolling deep
+         (Fish is plentiful and cheap);
+          As the sea, my love is deep!"
+      Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo,
+      Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo.
+
+
+                    V.
+
+    Lady Jingly answered sadly,
+         And her tears began to flow,--
+          "Your proposal comes too late,
+       Mr. Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo!
+    I would be your wife most gladly!"
+    (Here she twirled her fingers madly,)
+         "But in England I've a mate!
+          Yes! you've asked me far too late,
+          For in England I've a mate,
+      Mr. Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo!
+      Mr. Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo!
+
+
+                    VI.
+
+   "Mr. Jones (his name is Handel,--
+         Handel Jones, Esquire, & Co.)
+           Dorking fowls delights to send,
+       Mr. Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo!
+    Keep, oh, keep your chairs and candle,
+    And your jug without a handle,--
+          I can merely be your friend!
+          Should my Jones more Dorkings send,
+          I will give you three, my friend!
+      Mr. Yonghy-Bongy-Bo!
+      Mr. Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo!
+
+
+                    VII.
+
+   "Though you've such a tiny body,
+         And your head so large doth grow,--
+           Though your hat may blow away,
+       Mr. Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo!
+    Though you're such a Hoddy Doddy,
+    Yet I wish that I could modi-
+          fy the words I needs must say!
+          Will you please to go away?
+          That is all I have to say,
+      Mr. Yongby-Bonghy-Bo!
+      Mr. Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo!"
+
+
+                    VIII.
+
+    Down the slippery slopes of Myrtle,
+        Where the early pumpkins blow,
+          To the calm and silent sea
+       Fled the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo.
+    There, beyond the Bay of Gurtle,
+    Lay a large and lively Turtle.
+         "You're the Cove," he said, "for me;
+          On your back beyond the sea,
+          Turtle, you shall carry me!"
+      Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo,
+      Said the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo.
+
+              [Illustration]
+
+
+                    IX.
+
+    Through the silent-roaring ocean
+        Did the Turtle swiftly go;
+          Holding fast upon his shell
+      Rode the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo.
+    With a sad primaeval motion
+    Towards the sunset isles of Boshen
+          Still the Turtle bore him well.
+          Holding fast upon his shell,
+         "Lady Jingly Jones, farewell!"
+      Sang the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo,
+      Sang the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo.
+
+
+                    X.
+
+    From the Coast of Coromandel
+        Did that Lady never go;
+          On that heap of stones she mourns
+      For the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo.
+    On that Coast of Coromandel,
+    In his jug without a handle
+        Still she weeps, and daily moans;
+        On that little heap of stones
+        To her Dorking Hens she moans,
+          For the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo,
+          For the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo.
+
+
+
+
+THE POBBLE WHO HAS NO TOES.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+                    I.
+
+    The Pobble who has no toes
+        Had once as many as we;
+    When they said, "Some day you may lose them all;"
+        He replied, "Fish fiddle de-dee!"
+    And his Aunt Jobiska made him drink
+    Lavender water tinged with pink;
+    For she said, "The World in general knows
+    There's nothing so good for a Pobble's toes!"
+
+
+                    II.
+
+    The Pobble who has no toes,
+        Swam across the Bristol Channel;
+    But before he set out he wrapped his nose
+        In a piece of scarlet flannel.
+    For his Aunt Jobiska said, "No harm
+    Can come to his toes if his nose is warm;
+    And it's perfectly known that a Pobble's toes
+    Are safe--provided he minds his nose."
+
+
+                    III.
+
+    The Pobble swam fast and well,
+        And when boats or ships came near him,
+    He tinkledy-binkledy-winkled a bell
+        So that all the world could hear him.
+    And all the Sailors and Admirals cried,
+    When they saw him nearing the further side,--
+   "He has gone to fish, for his Aunt Jobiska's
+    Runcible Cat with crimson whiskers!"
+
+
+                    IV.
+
+    But before he touched the shore,--
+        The shore of the Bristol Channel,
+    A sea-green Porpoise carried away
+        His wrapper of scarlet flannel.
+    And when he came to observe his feet,
+    Formerly garnished with toes so neat,
+    His face at once became forlorn
+    On perceiving that all his toes were gone!
+
+
+                    V.
+
+    And nobody ever knew,
+        From that dark day to the present,
+    Whoso had taken the Pobble's toes,
+        In a manner so far from pleasant.
+    Whether the shrimps or crawfish gray,
+    Or crafty Mermaids stole them away,
+    Nobody knew; and nobody knows
+    How the Pobble was robbed of his twice five toes!
+
+
+                    VI.
+
+    The Pobble who has no toes
+        Was placed in a friendly Bark,
+    And they rowed him back, and carried him up
+        To his Aunt Jobiska's Park.
+    And she made him a feast, at his earnest wish,
+    Of eggs and buttercups fried with fish;
+    And she said, "It's a fact the whole world knows,
+    That Pobbles are happier without their toes."
+
+
+
+
+THE NEW VESTMENTS.
+
+    There lived an old man in the Kingdom of Tess,
+    Who invented a purely original dress;
+    And when it was perfectly made and complete,
+    He opened the door and walked into the street.
+
+    By way of a hat he'd a loaf of Brown Bread,
+    In the middle of which he inserted his head;
+    His Shirt was made up of no end of dead Mice,
+    The warmth of whose skins was quite fluffy and nice;
+    His Drawers were of Rabbit-skins, so were his Shoes;
+    His Stockings were skins, but it is not known whose;
+    His Waistcoat and Trowsers were made of Pork Chops;
+    His Buttons were Jujubes and Chocolate Drops;
+    His Coat was all Pancakes, with Jam for a border,
+    And a girdle of Biscuits to keep it in order;
+    And he wore over all, as a screen from bad weather,
+    A Cloak of green Cabbage-leaves stitched all together.
+
+    He had walked a short way, when he heard a great noise,
+    Of all sorts of Beasticles, Birdlings, and Boys;
+    And from every long street and dark lane in the town
+    Beasts, Birdies, and Boys in a tumult rushed down.
+    Two Cows and a Calf ate his Cabbage-leaf Cloak;
+    Four Apes seized his Girdle, which vanished like smoke;
+    Three Kids ate up half of his Pancaky Coat,
+    And the tails were devour'd by an ancient He Goat;
+    An army of Dogs in a twinkling tore _up_ his
+    Pork Waistcoat and Trowsers to give to their Puppies;
+    And while they were growling, and mumbling the Chops,
+    Ten Boys prigged the Jujubes and Chocolate Drops.
+    He tried to run back to his house, but in vain,
+    For scores of fat Pigs came again and again:
+    They rushed out of stables and hovels and doors;
+    They tore off his stockings, his shoes, and his drawers;
+    And now from the housetops with screechings descend
+    Striped, spotted, white, black, and gray Cats without end:
+    They jumped on his shoulders and knocked off his hat,
+    When Crows, Ducks, and Hens made a mincemeat of that;
+    They speedily flew at his sleeves in a trice,
+    And utterly tore up his Shirt of dead Mice;
+    They swallowed the last of his Shirt with a squall,--
+    Whereon he ran home with no clothes on at all.
+
+    And he said to himself, as he bolted the door,
+   "I will not wear a similar dress any more,
+    Any more, any more, any more, never more!"
+
+
+
+
+MR. AND MRS. DISCOBBOLOS.
+
+                    I.
+
+    Mr. and Mrs. Discobbolos
+        Climbed to the top of a wall.
+      And they sate to watch the sunset sky,
+      And to hear the Nupiter Piffkin cry,
+        And the Biscuit Buffalo call.
+    They took up a roll and some Camomile tea,
+    And both were as happy as happy could be,
+            Till Mrs. Discobbolos said,--
+           "Oh! W! X! Y! Z!
+            It has just come into my head,
+      Suppose we should happen to fall!!!!!
+                        Darling Mr. Discobbolos!
+
+
+                    II.
+
+   "Suppose we should fall down flumpetty,
+        Just like pieces of stone,
+      On to the thorns, or into the moat,
+      What would become of your new green coat?
+        And might you not break a bone?
+    It never occurred to me before,
+    That perhaps we shall never go down any more!"
+            And Mrs. Discobbolos said,
+           "Oh! W! X! Y! Z!
+            What put it into your head
+      To climb up this wall, my own
+                        Darling Mr. Discobbolos?"
+
+
+                    III.
+
+    Mr. Discobbolos answered,
+       "At first it gave me pain,
+      And I felt my ears turn perfectly pink
+      When your exclamation made me think
+        We might never get down again!
+    But now I believe it is wiser far
+    To remain for ever just where we are."
+            And Mr. Discobbolos said,
+           "Oh! W! X! Y! Z!
+            It has just come into my head
+      We shall never go down again,
+                        Dearest Mrs. Discobbolos!"
+
+
+                    IV.
+
+    So Mr. and Mrs. Discobbolos
+        Stood up and began to sing,--
+     "Far away from hurry and strife
+      Here we will pass the rest of life,
+        Ding a dong, ding dong, ding!
+    We want no knives nor forks nor chairs,
+    No tables nor carpets nor household cares;
+            From worry of life we've fled;
+            Oh! W! X! Y! Z!
+            There is no more trouble ahead,
+      Sorrow or any such thing,
+                        For Mr. and Mrs. Discobbolos!"
+
+
+
+
+THE QUANGLE WANGLE'S HAT.
+
+[Illustration]
+
+                    I.
+
+    On the top of the Crumpetty Tree
+        The Quangle Wangle sat,
+    But his face you could not see,
+        On account of his Beaver Hat.
+    For his Hat was a hundred and two feet wide,
+    With ribbons and bibbons on every side,
+    And bells, and buttons, and loops, and lace,
+    So that nobody ever could see the face
+            Of the Quangle Wangle Quee.
+
+
+                    II.
+
+    The Quangle Wangle said
+        To himself on the Crumpetty Tree,
+    "Jam, and jelly, and bread
+        Are the best of food for me!
+    But the longer I live on this Crumpetty Tree
+    The plainer than ever it seems to me
+    That very few people come this way
+    And that life on the whole is far from gay!"
+            Said the Quangle Wangle Quee.
+
+
+                    III.
+
+    But there came to the Crumpetty Tree
+        Mr. and Mrs. Canary;
+    And they said, "Did ever you see
+        Any spot so charmingly airy?
+    May we build a nest on your lovely Hat?
+    Mr. Quangle Wangle, grant us that!
+    O please let us come and build a nest
+    Of whatever material suits you best,
+            Mr. Quangle Wangle Quee!"
+
+
+                    IV.
+
+    And besides, to the Crumpetty Tree
+        Came the Stork, the Duck, and the Owl;
+    The Snail and the Bumble-Bee,
+        The Frog and the Fimble Fowl
+    (The Fimble Fowl, with a Corkscrew leg);
+    And all of them said, "We humbly beg
+    We may build our homes on your lovely Hat,--
+    Mr. Quangle Wangle, grant us that!
+       Mr. Quangle Wangle Quee!"
+
+
+                    V.
+
+    And the Golden Grouse came there,
+        And the Pobble who has no toes,
+    And the small Olympian bear,
+        And the Dong with a luminous nose.
+    And the Blue Baboon who played the flute,
+    And the Orient Calf from the Land of Tute,
+    And the Attery Squash, and the Bisky Bat,--
+    All came and built on the lovely Hat
+      Of the Quangle Wangle Quee.
+
+                    VI.
+
+    And the Quangle Wangle said
+        To himself on the Crumpetty Tree,
+    "When all these creatures move
+        What a wonderful noise there'll be!"
+    And at night by the light of the Mulberry moon
+    They danced to the Flute of the Blue Baboon,
+    On the broad green leaves of the Crumpetty Tree,
+    And all were as happy as happy could be,
+      With the Quangle Wangle Quee.
+
+
+
+
+THE CUMMERBUND.
+An Indian Poem.
+
+                    I.
+
+She sate upon her Dobie,
+    To watch the Evening Star,
+And all the Punkahs, as they passed,
+    Cried, "My! how fair you are!"
+Around her bower, with quivering leaves,
+    The tall Kamsamahs grew,
+And Kitmutgars in wild festoons
+    Hung down from Tchokis blue.
+
+
+                    II.
+
+Below her home the river rolled
+    With soft meloobious sound,
+Where golden-finned Chuprassies swam,
+    In myriads circling round.
+Above, on tallest trees remote
+    Green Ayahs perched alone,
+And all night long the Mussak moan'd
+    Its melancholy tone.
+
+
+                    III.
+
+And where the purple Nullahs threw
+    Their branches far and wide,
+And silvery Goreewallahs flew
+    In silence, side by side,
+The little Bheesties' twittering cry
+    Rose on the flagrant air,
+And oft the angry Jampan howled
+    Deep in his hateful lair.
+
+
+                    IV.
+
+She sate upon her Dobie,
+    She heard the Nimmak hum,
+When all at once a cry arose,
+    "The Cummerbund is come!"
+In vain she fled: with open jaws
+    The angry monster followed,
+And so (before assistance came)
+    That Lady Fair was swollowed.
+
+
+                    V.
+
+They sought in vain for even a bone

+Section  2.  Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers.  It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come.  In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4

+Section 4.  Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment.  Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States.  Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements.  We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance.  To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit https://www.gutenberg.org/fundraising/donate
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States.  U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses.  Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including including checks, online payments and credit card
+donations.  To donate, please visit:
+https://www.gutenberg.org/fundraising/donate

+
+Section 5.  General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone.  For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included.  Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+     https://www.gutenberg.org
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
