ALICE'S ADVENTURES IN WONDERLAND by Lewis Carroll

CHAPTER I
Down the Rabbit-Hole

But do cats eat bats, I wonder?'  And here Alice
began to get rather sleepy, and went on saying to
herself, in a dreamy sort of way, 'Do cats eat
bats?  Do cats eat bats?' and sometimes, 'Do bats
eat cats?' for, you see, as she couldn't answer
either question, it didn't much matter which way
she put it.
</TYPE>
<TYPE>
She felt that she was dozing off, and had just
begun to dream that she was walking hand in hand
with Dinah, and saying to her very earnestly,
'Now, Dinah, tell me the truth:  did you ever eat
a bat?' when suddenly, thump! thump! down she
came upon a heap of sticks and dry leaves, and
the fall was over.
</TYPE>
<TYPE>
Alice was not a bit hurt, and she jumped up on to
her feet in a moment:  she looked up, but it was
all dark overhead; before her was another long
passage, and the White Rabbit was still in sight,
hurrying down it.  There was not a moment to be
lost: away went Alice like the wind, and was just
in time to hear it say, as it turned a corner,
'Oh my ears and whiskers, how late it's getting!'
</TYPE>
<TYPE>
She was close behind it when she turned the
corner, but the Rabbit was no longer to be seen:
she found herself in a long, low hall, which was
lit up by a row of lamps hanging from the roof.
</TYPE>
<TYPE>
There were doors all round the hall, but they
were all locked; and when Alice had been all the
way down one side and up the other, trying every
door, she walked sadly down the middle,
wondering how she was ever to get out again.
Suddenly she came upon a little three-legged
table, all made of solid glass; there was nothing
on it except a tiny golden key, and Alice's first
</TYPE>
<TYPE>
thought was that it might belong to one of the
doors of the hall; but, alas! either the locks
were too large, or the key was too small, but at
any rate it would not open any of them.  However,
on the second time round, she came upon a low
curtain she had not noticed before, and behind
it was a little door about fifteen inches high:
she tried the little golden key in the lock, and
</TYPE>
<TYPE>
to her great delight it fitted!
Alice opened the door and found that it led into
a small passage, not much larger than a rat-hole:
she knelt down and looked along the passage into
the loveliest garden you ever saw.  How she longed
to get out of that dark hall, and wander about
among those beds of bright flowers and those cool
fountains, but she could not even get her head
</TYPE>
<TYPE>
though the doorway; 'and even if my head would go
through,' thought poor Alice, 'it would be of very
little use without my shoulders.  Oh, how I wish
I could shut up like a telescope!  I think I
could, if I only know how to begin.'  For, you
see, so many out-of-the-way things had happened
lately, that Alice had begun to think that very
few things indeed were really impossible.
