English Writers: Lewis Carroll

О Льюисе Кэрролле

мы читали текст в 9 классе.

Ребят очень удивило, что автор "Алисы в стране чудес" был преподавателем математики и писал стихи.

Прочитайте отрывок из стихотворения Льюиса Кэрролла:

THE WALRUS AND THE CARPENTER
The sun was shining on the sea,
    Shining with all his might:
He did his very best to make
    The billows smooth and bright --
And this was odd, because it was
    The middle of the night.
 
The moon was shining sulkily,
     Because she thought the sun
Had got no business to be there
    After the day was done --
"It's very rude of him," she said,
    "To come and spoil the fun."
 
The sea was wet as wet could be,
    The sands were dry as dry.
You could not see a cloud, because
    No cloud was in the sky:
No birds were flying overhead --
    There were no birds to fly...
