The big fish seemed to be engaged in a solemn discussion. Every once in awhile one of them waved a fin or glanced in his direction. Finally, two of the largest fish approached a little nearer. "Don't make any sudden moves," the largest one, whose name was Glubber Fish, said with a mixture of command and pleading. "I don't understand," the little fish said, bewildered.
"Are you Chirpy Bird?" asked Glubber Fish. "Yes. "You must leave the pond." It was a tone of finality. "But why?" asked Chirpy Bird. "Because you'll soon be eating us and our children. Besides, birds don't live under water." "But I'm not a bird," Chirpy Bird protested. "What's your name?" demanded the other, who was called Spotted Fish. "Chirpy Bird. But "
"As well as disrespectful and impudent," added Glubber fish. "You must listen to reason," said Whisker Fish, self-importantly brushing himself in preparation. "And here it is: You are Chirpy Bird; granted. Birds eat fish; granted. Therefore, you eat fish." "But " Chirpy Bird tried to explain. "There is no 'but. It's a syllogism, and cannot be answered.
