Rare, Uncollected, Unpublished, Nonexistent Verse of Lewis Carroll

"Callooh! Callay! Rare, Uncollected, Unpublished, & Nonexistent Verse of Lewis Carroll, edited by Edward Wakeling and August A. Imholtz, Jr., is on its way to all members as a free premium! For others, the only way to get a copy is to become a member. (This is due to an agreement with the C. L. Dodgson Estate, in which the book may not be sold.) But that’s a truly fine bonus!"

I'm very glad and grateful for having contributed with this two collages among amazing illustrations by Jonathan Dixon, Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, Tania Ianovskaia, Oleg Lipchenko, Byron Sewell, Mahendra Singh.


Mary “Minnie”, Isabella “Ella” and Emily “Emmie” Drury (August 1869) 

Three little maidens, weary of the rail – 
Three pairs of little ears, listening to a tale – 
Three little hands, held out in readiness 
For three little puzzles, very hard to guess – 
Three pairs of little eyes, open wonder-wide 
At three little scissors lying side by side – 
Three little mouths, that thanked an unknown friend 
For one little book he undertook to send – 
Tho’ whether they’ll remember a friend, or book, or day, 
In three little weeks, is more than I can say.

Lorina, Alice and Edith Liddell 
To Lorina, Alice and Edith Liddell. Christmas 1861. 

Little maidens, when you look 
On this little story-book, 
Reading with attentive eye 
Its enticing history, 

Never think that hours of play 
Are your only HOLIDAY, 
And that in a HOUSE of joy
Lessons serve but to annoy: 

If in any HOUSE you find 
Children of a gentle mind, 
Each the others pleasing ever – 
Each the others vexing never – 

Daily work and pastime daily 
In their order taking gaily – 
Then be very sure that they 
Have a life of HOLIDAY.
