The Famous Tay Whale : ウィキペディア英語版 | The Famous Tay Whale
"The Famous Tay Whale" is a poem〔 at Internet Archive〕 by William Topaz McGonagall about a humpback whale hunted and killed in 1883 in the Firth of Tay near Dundee, Scotland, then the country's main whaling port. The doggerel verse is famous for lacking poetic quality. ==Context== The Tay whale came to public prominence when it was subject to a public dissection by the anatomist Sir John Struthers and taken on a tour of Scotland and England by a showman, John Woods. Its skeleton is now held by the McManus Galleries in Dundee city centre.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=McGonagall Online: The Famous Tay Whale )〕
