Today, instead of a poem or a first line, we have a cool old illustration from Lewis Carroll's "The Hunting of the Snark." Pretty wild, huh? I've loved the old illustrations from Carroll books since I was a kid. They're so funny, and so weird.
I think Henry Holiday's illustrations are some of the finest that have ever appeared in a book. I also enjoy his stained glass work.
So the Snark found the verdict, although, as it owned, It was spent with the toils of the day: When it said the word “GUILTY!” the Jury all groaned, And some of them fainted away.
