Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, Chapter XII. Alice’s Evidence, sentence 97

Lastly, she pictured to herself how this same little sister of hers would, in the after-time, be herself a grown woman; and how she would keep, through all her riper years, the simple and loving heart of her childhood: and how she would gather about her other little children, and make _their_ eyes bright and eager with many a strange tale, perhaps even with the dream of Wonderland of long ago: and how she would feel with all their simple sorrows, and find a pleasure in all their simple joys, remembering her own child-life, and the happy summer days.

Who acts: Alice, this, the, children, sorrows · What happens: picture, sister, be, grow, keep, gather · To what, where: Alice, eyes, pleasure, simple joys, own child life, Wonderland
