A somewhat ciever Raj

The Pioneer tells story Of a rat
which on one occasion was caught
alive on ship and thrown over
board. A sea gull was floating by
the side of the ship. Immediately
there ensued battle royal, and the
rat strangled the sea gull to death.
He then sat upon the carcass of the
sea gull, unfurled its left wing to
catch the wind and, working the
right wing as an oar, set sail for the
shore!
