The English is strange,
There are coversations that we cannot change. The plural of box ,we say boxes,
But ox becomes oxen and never oxes.
The plural of mouse becomes mice,
But house never becomes hice.
The plural of mass, we say mess,
Why shouldn't the plural of pan be pen.
Many a brother we called brethren,
Many a father is not a fatheren.
So English I fancy, you will agree ,
A most funny language that can ever be.
