Lewis Carroll Quotes

'True love gives true love of the best: Then take,' I cried, 'my heart to thee!' The very heart from out my breast I plucked, I gave it willingly; Her very heart she gave to me - Then died the glory from the west.In the gray light I saw her face, And it was withered, old, and gray; The flowers were fading in their place, Were fading with the fading day.
