body, twenty feet long and a foot
wide and half an inch thick; or
great red jellyfsh full of poisonous
darts coiled up in its body and ready

streamers reaching down seventy feet
or more I may mention also the giant
squid or cuttlefish, thirty feet long,
whitish coloredl beast that is always
found dead, the same being true OF the
giant octopus with its reach OF seventy
feet from tip to tip Of its huge arms.
