Introduction

“The time has come,” the Walrus said,
“To talk of many things:
Of shoes — and ships — and sealing-wax —
Of cabbages — and kings —
And why the sea is boiling hot —
And whether pigs have wings.”

Lewis Carroll apparently gave his illustrator, Sir John Tenniel, a choice of carpenter, butterfly or baronet, Tenniel chose the first.

Pigs can have wings.
