The Complete Works of Lewis Carroll/Horrors
HORRORS
(1850)
(1850)
Methought I walked a dismal place Dim horrors all around;The air was thick with many a face, And black as night the ground.
I saw a monster come with speed, Its face of grimmliest green,On human beings used to feed, Most dreadful to be seen.
I could not speak, I could not fly, I fell down in that place,I saw the monster's horrid eye Come leering in my face!
Amidst my scarcely-stifled groans, Amidst my moanings deep,I heard a voice, "Wake! Mr. Jones, You're screaming in your sleep!"
