The Hunting of the Snark

"The last of the crew needs especial remark,   Though he looked an incredible dunce: He had just one idea-but, that one being 'Snark',   The good Bellman engaged him at once." 'The Hunting of the Snark' (1876) is a nonsense poem by 'Alice Adventures in Wonderland' author Lewis Carroll. It describes the disastrous hunting mission by a bizarre group of characters, among these a butcher who can only kill beavers and a guy who forgot his own name.
Gloriously nonsensical, this poem is bound to appeal to all fans of Alice.
