The History of the Seven Families of the Lake Pipple-Popple
by Edward Lear
Chapter VI
When the seven young Storks set out, they walked or flew for fourteen weeks in a straight line, and for six weeks more in a crooked one; and after that they ran as hard as they could for one hundred and eight miles; and after that they stood still, and made a himmeltanious chatter-clatter-blattery noise with their bills.
About the same time they perceived a large frog, spotted with green, andwith a sky-blue stripe under each ear.
And that was the end of the seven young Storks.
