story?
O "In the sea, once upon a time, O my Best Beloved,
there was a Whale, and he ate fishes. He ate the
starfish and the garfish, and the crab and the dab, and
the plaice and the dace, and the skate and his mate,
and the mackereel and the pickereel, and the really
truly twirly-whirly eel. All the fishes he could find in all
the sea he ate with his mouth-so!"
"Till at last there was only one small fish left in all the
sea, and he was a small 'Stute Fish, and he swam a
little behind the Whale's right ear, so as to be out of
harm's way. Then the Whale stood up on his tail and
said, 'I'm hungry."
