The Chimpanzee and the Boa ConstrictorAs a Venerable Boa Constrictor was about to narrate some Reminiscences of his Youth, a pert young Chimpanzee remarked that "Snake Stories were an awful Boa," whereupon the Serpent did him in his Tail enfold, saying that even Monkeys had their Place in the Economy of Nature.
