Alice In Wonderland

Ch 12 - Alice's Evidence


Listen Later

The White Rabbit calls Alice to the witness stand. She forgets that she has risen in size and knocks over the jury table, scrambling to reassemble all of the jurors. Alice appears to know "absolutely nothing" about the tarts. Rule 42, which says, "All persons higher than a mile high must leave the court," is interjected by the King. Everyone's attention is drawn to Alice, who denies being a mile tall and accuses the King of making up the law. The King responds that Rule 42 is the book's oldest rule, but Alice counters that if it is the book's oldest rule, it should be the first rule.

As the debate continues, the Queen demands that the sentence be read before the verdict. Alice criticizes the Queen, who has called for Alice's execution. By then, Alice had reached her full size. Alice awakens unexpectedly and finds herself back on her sister's lap on the riverbank. She tells her sister about her adventures. Alice walks away, leaving her sister daydreaming on the riverbank. She sees the characters from Alice's adventures, but she knows the images will fade when she opens her eyes. She envisions that Alice will reach adulthood she will find pleasure in all their simple joys, remembering her own child-life.
