Alice Liddell 1852 - 1934
Deep in contemplation, or was it cogitation, call it 'intuition', Alice aforethought had a premonition, something's round the corner, and she's come to warn yer, doing all she can, before it hits the fan, for she has seen a vision, more than a vague suspicion, it's a strong affirmation of a predetermination, and believe me when I say, "Whatever omen she thought she...
