Quite alright, but you did give me quite a turn. I'm late, I'm late, I'm late.ĭoorknob: D'ooooh! Alice: Oh! I beg your pardon. What could a rabbit possibly be late for? Please, sir! Rabbit: I'm late, I'm late. and a watch! Rabbit: Oh, my fur and whiskers! I'm late, I'm late, I'm late! Alice: Now, this is curious. I keep wishing it could be that way / because my world would be a Wonderland.Īlice: Oh, Dinah. I could listen to a babbling brook and hear a song that I could understand. Everyone would have a dozen bluebirds / within that world of my own.

There'd be new birds, / lots of nice and friendly how-de-do birds. They would sit and talk to me for hours / when I'm lonely in a world of my own. All the flowers / would have very extra special powers. Cats and rabbits / would reside in fancy little houses, / and be dressed in shoes and hats and trousers. You see? In my world, you wouldn't say 'meow'. And contrariwise, what it is, it wouldn't be. Nothing would be what it is, because everything would be what it isn't. If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense. Alice: Nonsense? Alice's sister: Once more, from the beginning. Alice's sister: Your world? Huh! What nonsense. Alice: In this world, perhaps, but in my world, the books would be nothing but pictures. William's conduct at first was moderate.' Alice? Will you kindly pay attention to your history lesson? Alice: I'm sorry, but how can 1 possibly pay attention to a book with no pictures in it? Alice's sister: My dear child, there are a great many good books in this world without pictures. Alice's sister: 'And even Stigand, the archbishop of Canterbury, agreed to meet with William and offer him the crown. Edwin and Morcar, the Earls of Mercia and Northumbria, declared for him: and even Stigand.' Alice? Alice: Hmm? Oh, I'm listening. You see?ĭialogue Alice's sister: '.Who wanted leaders, and had been of late much accustomed to usurpation and conquest. And contrariwise, what it is, it wouldn’t be. Nothing would be what it is, because everything would be what it isn’t. It would be so nice if something would make sense for a change.Well! After this, I shall think nothing of falling down stairs.After all, we've haven't been invited.and curiousity often leads to trouble!.I'm sorry, but how could everyone possibly pay attention to a book with no pictures in it?.
