The grey gull sat on a floating whale, / On a floating whale sat he, / And he told his tale of the storm and the gale, / And the ships that he saw with steam and sail, / As he flew by the Northern Sea.

-"I have seen a sign that is strange and new, / That I never before did see: / A flying ship that roared as it flew, / The storm and the tempest driving through, / It carried a flag and it carried a crew, / Now what would that be?" said he.
