357 · · So engrossed was the Butcher, he heeded them not,
358 · · · · As he wrote with a pen in each hand,
359 · · And explained all the while in a popular style
360 · · · · Which the Beaver could well understand.
361 · · “Taking Three as the subject to reason about—
362 · · · · A convenient number to state—
363 · · We add Seven, and Ten, and then multiply out
364 · · · · By One Thousand diminished by Eight.
365 · · “The result we proceed to divide, as you see,
366 · · · · By Nine Hundred and Ninety Two:
367 · · Then subtract Seventeen, and the answer must be
368 · · · · Exactly and perfectly true.
369 · · “The method employed I would gladly explain,
370 · · · · While I have it so clear in my head,
371 · · If I had but the time and you had but the brain—

374 · · · · Enveloped in absolute mystery,
375 · · And without extra charge I will give you at large
376 · · · · A Lesson in Natural History.”
