Samuel Whiskers got through a hole in the wainscot, and went boldly down the front staircase to the dairy to get the butter. This soldier carried a long green gun over his shoulder and had lovely green whiskers that fell quite to his knees. One voyager in Purchas calls them the wondrous whiskers inside of the whale's mouth; another, hogs' bristles; a third old gentleman in Hackluyt uses the following elegant language: There are about two hundred and fifty fins growing on each side of his upper chop, which arch over his tongue on each side of his mouth. |
