Poor Alice! It was as much as she could do, lying down on one side, to look through into the garden with one eye; but to get through was more hopeless
In this passage from Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, Alice is depicted as struggling to see beyond her immediate surroundings. She finds it difficult just to lie on her side and peer into the garden with one eye, highlighting her limited perspective and the challenges she faces in understanding her environment.
She longs to get through the barrier or obstacle that separates her from the garden, but feels it is an impossible task. This scene emphasizes her feelings of frustration and the whimsical, surreal nature of her adventures, where even simple acts like looking through might seem daunting and hopeless.
