In Lewis Carroll's book, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, the Caterpillar tells Alice to repeat the poem You Are Old, Father William, which she does. It begins, "'You are old, Father William,' the young man said."
So, the young man, Alice and the Caterpillar all say 'You are old father' in Alice in Wonderland.
`Repeat, "YOU ARE OLD, FATHER WILLIAM,"' said the Caterpillar.
Alice folded her hands, and began:--
`You are old, Father William,' the young man said, `And your hair has become very white; And yet you incessantly stand on your head-- Do you think, at your age, it is right?'
In the 1951 Disney version, Tweedledum and Tweedledee begin to repeat the poem, but Alice has heard enough poetry from them, so she leaves.
