What draws the boy into the tulgey wood in the poem Jabberwocky?
In the poem Jabberwocky, Lewis Carroll gives no indication as to what 'draws the boy into' the wood, in fact, there is no indication that he was ever anywhere else. It is entirely possible that he and his father live in the wood.
It is a parody of Anglo Saxon poetry, literature composed in the years from (circa) 450 until the Norman invasion of 1066. England used to be very heavily forested and a great many people would live in the woods, or in settlements surrounded by woods. Forests wouldn't be that separate 'other' place of dreams or nightmares, but one's home, which must be utilised for hunting, gathering and fuel.
There is no sense in the poem of the boy having entered anywhere (or left somewhere else); he picks up his sword, spends a long time looking for his foe, then he rests on the Tumtum tree. As no change of location is described, or even suggested, it seems likely that both the boy and the father are in the woods from the beginning.
What is the rhyme scheme of Jabberwocky?
In the first, second, fourth, and seventh stanzas the rhyme scheme is a, b, a, b. In the third, fifth, and sixth stanzas, the rhyme scheme is a, b, c, b; however, there is an internal rhyme into the third line: "he" and "tree" "dead" and "head" "day" and "Calay!"

Where is the magic in Alice in Wonderland?
The whole of Wonderland is magical in its way, populated as it is by animated playing cards, talking animals and fantastical creatures such as the Mock Turtle and the Gryphon. Then of course, it is liberally strewn with food and drink which causes Alice to change size during her visit. Things appear and disappear without rhyme or reason - for example, when Alice first discovers the golden key, it is the only thing on the table, but the next time she looks there is also the bottle marked 'drink me' - and the Cheshire Cat appears and disappears with dizzying speed.
But is this really magic at all? Alice's Adventures are, after all, set within a dream and so what seems like magic, might just be the surreality of dreams, where nothing is constant and little makes sense.
