"For, although common Snarks do no manner of harm,
Yet I feel it my duty to say,
Some are Boojums--" The Bellman broke off in alarm,
For the Baker had fainted away.
They roused him with muffins--they roused him with ice--
They roused him with mustard and cress--
The roused him with jam and judicious advice--
They set him conundrums to guess.
