    Four-and-twenty tailors went to kill a snail,

    The best man amongst them durst not touch her tail;

    She put out her horns like a little Kyloe cow;

    Run, tailors, run, or she’ll kill you all e’en now.

    The alternative explanation is that there actually were a lot of aggressive giant snails, and these fights were just part of medieval life…
