Chivalrist of pure intent Honoured by the ears that lent A tale recounted to content Resplendant wonders brought to ear Laments that draw an unseen tear Evasion of the heart's deep fear Soft young mind and placid eyes Lucid to the tale's disguise Unseeing the truth behind the lies There upon the golden water Wimsically listening to the lauder Inclines the middle Liddell daughter Days have come and years have passed Golden evenings couldn't last Erosionary time has swept too fast Dreary dawns and bitter nights Overcame the muse's might Dead and gone, that fragile light Greiving when his heart was tore Secreted to land of lore On through Wonderland he'll soar Now to dream forevermore
