Heh heh heh. Reminds me of something my mom used to quote:

Toiling, rejoicing,
My life I thus conduct;
Each morning sees some task begun,
Each evening sees it chucked!

"Toiling, rejoicing, sorrowing,
Onward through life he goes;
Each morning sees some task begun,
Each evening sees its clause.
Something attempted, something done,
Has earn'd a night's repose."

. . . it's like figuring out the originals of the poems from Alice.

. . . er, that's "close". Typo in the original that I didn't catch.

Not to mention the stutter-step when I saw it - too late!

"How doth the little crocodile . . . "
