Premise: What shall I do ? '<br>` Tell him to come out , ' said the ` Stute Fish .<br>So the Whale called down his own throat to the shipwrecked Mariner , ` Come out and behave yourself .<br>I 've got the hiccoughs . '<br>` Nay , nay ! '<br>said the Mariner .<br>` Not so , but far otherwise .<br>Take me to my natal-shore and the white-cliffs-of-Albion , and I 'll think about it . '<br>And he began to dance more than ever .<br>` You had better take him home , ' said the ` Stute Fish to the Whale . '<br>I ought to have warned you that he is a man of infinite-resource-and-sagacity . '
Hypothesis: The fish is unable to speak.
