Which quotations from "the crab that played with the sea" convey a comic tone? Select two options.

In a narrative, the tone refers to the attitide that a writer has towards a subject or towards his audience. It is conveyed by the choice of words and the events that occur through the story. In this story, Rudyard Kipling conveys a comic tone (humorous, funny) in several instances. Two examples are:

"He went East, and he found All-the-Cow there-was feeding in the field that had been made ready for her, and she licked her tongue round a whole forest at a time, and swallowed it and sat down to chew her cud." (It is comical because of the cow's ability to eat a whole forest at a time). "'Payah kun,' said the Eldest Magician; and he breathed upon the bare patch where she had eaten, and upon the place where she had sat down, and one became the great Indian Desert, and the other became the Desert of Sahara, and you can look them out on the map." (It is comical because the cow caused the deserts to exist and also because it is used as a silly explanation for a real phenomenon).
