Carroll claimed that the inspiration for THE HUNTING OF THE SNARK (1876) sprang from 'one line of verse - one solitary line of verse - "For the Snark was a Boojum, you see"', that came to him one day in 1874 while he was out walking. To questions asking whether the poem was an allegory, or a political satire, or contained some hidden moral, he claimed to have 'but one answer, "I don't know!"' (The Theatre, 1887).
