As he almost tripped over a lion skin.

Look out! cried Prince Robert with glee

As he spied some more lion skins under a tree.

These are worth even more300 rupees each If we can just carry them all down to the beach.

Each skin weighed fifteen pounds and each coconut, five,

But they carried them all and made it alive.

The boat back to the island was very small

15 cubic feet baggage capacitythat was all.

Each lion skin took up one cubic foot

While eight coconuts the same space took.

With everything stowed they headed to sea

And on the way calculated what their new wealth might be.

Eureka! cried Prince Robert, Our worth is so great

That theres no other way we could return in this state.

Any other skins or nut that we might have brought Would now have us poorer. And now I know what

Ill write my friend Horace in England, for surely

Only he can appreciate our serendipity.
