Maritime Wisdom
"A bucket is oft called a pail,
but a walrus is not a whale".
So says the wise skipper
of a Yankee clipper:
"It's more than a matter of scale.
While both of them like to swim,
I can tell you by golly, by Jim,
while any landlubber
can see both have blubber,
a walrus has whiskers on him."
