The Fish - Alice In Wonderland
'First the fish must be caught. ' That is easy: a baby I think could have caught it. 'Next, the fish must be bought. ' That is easy: a penny, I think, would have bought it. 'Now cook me the fish! ' That is easy, and will not take more Than a minute. 'Let it lie in a dish! ' That is easy, because it already is in it. 'Bring it here! Let me sup! ' It is easy to set such a dish on the table. 'Take the dish-cover up! ' Ah, that is so hard that I fear I'm unable! For it holds like a glue- Holds the lid to the dish, while it lies in the middle: Which is easiest to do, Un-dish-cover the fish, or dishcover the riddle?
