The Elephant's Child (3) [The Elephant's Child]

The Elephant's Child (3)

One fine morning in the middle of the Precession of the Equinoxes this 'satiable Elephant's Child asked a new fine question that he had never asked before.

He asked, " What does the Crocodile have for dinner ? "

Then everybody said, " Hush ! " in the loud and dreadful tone, and they spanked him immediately and directly, without stopping, for a long time.

By and by, when that was finished, he came upon Kolokolo Bird sitting in the middle of a wait-a-bit thorn-bush, and he said, " My father has spanked me, and my mother has spanked me; all my aunts and uncles have spanked me for my 'satiable curiosity ; and still I want to know what the Crocodile has for dinner ! "
