Puzzles From Wonderland

All too soon will Childhood gay
Realise Life's sober sadness

(Dead beat but getting better
with each and every
passing day.)





Three sisters at breakfast were feeding the cat,
The first gave it sole - Puss was grateful for that:
The next gave it salmon - which Puss thought a treat:
The third gave it herring - which Puss wouldn't eat.

(Explain the conduct of the cat.)
( Lewis Carrol)
