Wake up, Alice dear!' said her sister; 'Why, what a long sleep you've had!' 'Oh, I've had such a curious dream!' said Alice, and she told her sister, as well as she could remember them, all these strange Adventures of hers that you have just been reading about; and when she had finished, her sister kissed her, and said, 'It was a curious dream, dear, certainly: but now run in to your tea; it's getting late.' So Alice got up and ran off, thinking while she ran, as well she might, what a wonderful dream it had been.
"Wake up, Alice dear!" said her sister. "Why, what a long sleep you've had!" Alice had a strange and curious dream, filled with strange adventures, which she narrated to her sister. She described the bizarre events and characters she had encountered, reflecting the vividness of her dream world.
After listening, her sister kissed her and remarked, "It was a curious dream, dear, certainly," then encouraged Alice to go to her tea as it was getting late. Alice quickly got up and ran off, pondering the extraordinary nature of her dream, feeling amazed by the fantastical experiences she had just recalled.
