The sun was shining on the sea,
Shining with all his might.
He did his very best to make
The billows smooth and bright.
And this was odd, because it was
The middle of the night.
Shining with all his might.
He did his very best to make
The billows smooth and bright.
And this was odd, because it was
The middle of the night.
—First stanza of The Walrus and the Carpenter from Alice's Adventures in Wonderland
