CHAPTER I. Down the Rabbit-Hole 🔊

 

Alice was beginning to get very tired of sitting by her sister on the

bank, and of having nothing to do: 🔊 once or twice she had peeped into the

book her sister was reading, but it had no pictures or conversations in

it, ‘and what is the use of a book,’ thought Alicewithout pictures or

conversations?’ 🔊

 

So she was considering in her own mind (as well as she could, for the

hot day made her feel very sleepy and stupid), whether the pleasure

of making a daisy-chain would be worth the trouble of getting up and

picking the daisies, 🔊 when suddenly a White Rabbit with pink eyes ran

close by her. 🔊

 

There was nothing so very remarkable in that; nor did Alice think it so

very much out of the way to hear the Rabbit say to itself, ‘Oh dear! 🔊

Oh dear! 🔊 I shall be late!’ 🔊
