Look up to the sky and what do you see? Children often see shapes in the clouds. This dark cloud appeared in a turbulent sky - set against the light of the moon, it looks quite dramatic! Is it a bird...is it a plane...no, it's a bat?

HAMLET
Do you see yonder
cloud that’s almost in shape of a camel?
POLONIUS
By th' mass, and
’tis like a camel indeed.
HAMLET
Methinks it is like
a weasel.
POLONIUS
It is backed like a
weasel.
HAMLET
Or like a whale.
POLONIUS
Very like a whale.
