Alice in Wonderland (22) [Alice in Wonderland]

Alice in Wonderland (22)

" You are old, Father William, " the young man said,
 " And your hair has become very white;
 And yet you incessantly stand on your headー
  Do you think
, at your ege, it is right ?

" In my youth, " Father William replied to his son,
  " I feared it might injure the brain;
 But
, now that I'm perfectly sure I have none,
   Why, I do it again and again. "


" You are old, " said the youth, " as I mentioned before,
    And have grown most uncommonly fat;
 Yet you turned a back-somersault
in at the doorー
    Pray, what is the reason of that ? "

" In my youth, " said the sage, as he shook his grey locks,
   " I kept all my limbs very supple
 By the use of th
is ointmentーone shilling the boxー
  Allow me to sell you a couple ? "



" You are old, said the youth, " and your jaws are too weak
     For anything
tougher than suet;
Yet you finished the goose, with
the bones and the beakー
    Pray how did you manage to do it ?

" In my youth, " said his father, " I took to the law,
    And argued each case with my wife;
 And the muscular strength, which it gave to my jaw,
    Has lasted the rest of my life. "




" You are old, " said the youth, " one would hardly suppose
    That your eye
was as steady as ever;
 Yet you balanced an eel on the end of your noseー
    What made you so awfully clever ? "

 " I have answered three question, and that is enough, "
     Said his father
; " don't give yourself airs !
 Do you think I can listen all day to such stuff ?
     Be off, or I'll kick you down stairs ! "




" That is not said right, " said the Caterpillar.

"Not quite right, I'm afraid, " said Alice timidly.
" Some of the words have got changed. "

" It is wrong from beginning to end, " said the Caterpillar decidedly.

There was a silence for some minutes.

The Caterpillar was the first to speak.
" What size do you want to be ? " it asked.

このAlice が語るYou are old, Father William の部分は、原作通りです(ところどころ意味不明の部分がありますが、原作の雰囲気をということで。)。
