there was one who was famed for the number of things he forgot when he entered the ship his umbrella his watch all his jewels and rings and the clothes he had bought for the trip he had forty two boxes all carefully packed with his name painted clearly on each but since he omitted to mention the fact they were all left behind on the beach his form is ungainly his intellect small but his courage is perfect and that after all is the thing that one needs with a snark his courage is perfect and that after all is the thing that one needs with a snark well the loss of his clothes hardly mattered because he had seven coats on when he came with three pairs of boots but the worst of it was he had wholly forgotten his name he would answer to hi or to any loud cry such as fry me or fritter my wig to what you may call um or what was his name but especially thing um a jig his form is ungainly his intellect small but his courage is perfect and that after all is the thing that one needs with a snark while for those who preferred a more forcible word he had different names from these his intimate friends called him candle ends and his enemies toasted cheese he came as a baker but owned when too late and it drove the poor bellman half mad he could only bake bridecake for which i may state no materials were to be had  his form is ungainly his intellect small but his courage is perfect and that after all is the thing that one needs with a snark his form is ungainly his intellect small but his courage is perfect and that after all is the thing that one needs with a snark his form is ungainly his intellect small but his courage is perfect and that after all is the thing that one needs with a snark
