Lines of Lewis Carroll
Hello,
Could anyone paraphrase the below lines by Carroll? It is cited in the very opening of a chapter named The Psychopathic Personality of the book titled Conditioned Reflex Therapy by Salter.
Many thanks!
Come, listen, my men, while I tell you again
The five unmistakable marks
By which you may know, wheresoever you go,
The warranted genuine Snarks.
—Lewis Carroll
