THE ARCHAEOLOGIST OF THE FUTURE Five thousand years have fled, let us suppose.
And lo, an archaeologist appears,
Searching for records of our joys and fears.
And haply out of all our verse and prose
One book alone remains. How will it pose
His plodding brain, after that flight of years,
To come on Alice swimming in her tears,
Or Father William, an eel upon his nose! He'll stare and gasp at Tweedle-dee and -dum
And gape at incandescent words that mock
Invention: Bandersnatch and Jabberwock,
And, fancying angry eggs and talking flowers,
No doubt will think his fifth millennium
A far less entertaining time than ours. -- Leonard Bacon
