(2) Alice's fun is rhyme
Before this work was published, it was said in Japan that ``you can't understand the fun of Alice until you read the original text,'' but Carroll focused on the fun of English sounds (rhymes) in his work. This is what I put into the poem.
For this reason, this work has been translated with particular emphasis on the rhyme of the poem. This will be a unique attempt.
The mouse is attacking the dog,
"That's too troublesome,
A trial without a jury or judge has no meaning. ”
“Both are played by me.”
A cunning Fury [waku],
``If I sentence everyone to death, there will be no life for you.''
*Rhyme is included in [ ]《 》.
