Punch. April 27, 1872. Pages 1-2, 169-172, 177-182.
CREATED/PUBLISHED
April 27, 1872
NOTES
It is likely that Dodgson removed page 173 for inclusion in the scrapbook. It contained a parody of "The Walrus and the Carpenter" under the heading of "A Lay of the Embankment (With all sorts of Apologies to Mr. Lewis Carroll for a slight liberty with a certain Poem)." The poem began: "The Chairman and the Chancellor/ Were walking by Thames strand,/ They wept like anything to see,/ Such lots of mud and sand./ 'If this were only cleared away,'/ They said, 'it would be grand.'" Fifteen verses were included in total with an illustration (signed WL) showing a man on a donkey viewing the pyramids in Egypt having no connection to the poem. However, page 173 did not appear in the scrapbook.
