contents We generalize two well-known enumerative facts. The first, due to Clebsch, says that a general binary sextic form is expressible as the sum of a cube and a square in 40 different ways. The second, due to Zariski and later Vakil, states that a general pencil of binary 12-ics contains exactly 3762 cubes plus squares, ignoring scaling.
