4 Will it surrenderas a slave for life?
5 Can it be tied by the leglike a pet birdfor little girls?
6 Is it ever chopped upand its pieces bargained forin the fish-market?
7 Can it be killedwith harpoons or spears?
8 Wrestle it just once—that will be the end.
9 Merely a glimpse of this monstermakes all courage melt.
10 And if it is too fiercefor anyone to attack,who would dare oppose me?
