7、断章：谜语的答案 ...
-
“Enquiries have so often been addressed to me, as to whether any answer to the Hatter’s Riddle can be imagined, that I may as well put on record here what seems to me to be a fairly appropriate answer, viz. ‘Because it can produce a few notes, though they are very flat; and it is never put with the wrong end in front!’ This, however, is merely an afterthought; the Riddle, as originally invented, had no answer at all.”（摘自1896版《爱丽丝梦游仙境》的前言）
至于“为什么乌鸦像写字台？”这个谜题，有一个广泛流传的解是“因为我喜欢你没有原因。”很浪漫，可惜这大概率不过是讹传。真正的爱，怎么说也不能是事出无因的罢。
