You know the song, perhaps? 'I've heard something like it, said Alice. 'It goes on, you know, the Hatter continued, 'in this way: "Up above the world you fly, Like a tea-tray in the sky. Twinkle, twinkle " Here the Dormouse shook itself, and began singing in its sleep 'Twinkle, twinkle, twinkle, twinkle and went on so long that they had to pinch it to make it stop.
"You had Voban before," he rejoined; "we know what happened a dainty bit of a letter all rose-lily scented, and comfits for the soldier. The pretty wren perches now in the Governor's house a-cousining, a-cousining. Think you it is that she may get a glimpse of m'sieu' the dormouse as he comes to trial? But 'tis no business o' mine; and if I bring my prisoner up when called for, there's duty done!"
I leaped up from my place, with one bound came up to the departing man, and seized him before he could reach the door, just as a furious tiger fastens up a miserable dormouse. "I am not drunk! I have never drunk wine, you know," I cried losing all self-restraint, and pressing him against the wall so that he shivered like a bat.
Not small, but rather hidden in the deep surrounding fur. Had you seen the dormouse at the moment of his final awakening, you might have recognized him from this description. A few minutes later and the grey, flitting shadow might easily have baffled you. For, as he reached the surface of his nest, the sun went down. Before him, at last, lay the twilight world he loved.

"I don't quite understand you," she said, as politely as she could. "The Dormouse is asleep again," said the Hatter, and he poured a little hot tea upon its nose. The Dormouse shook its head impatiently, and said, without opening its eyes, "Of course, of course: just what I was going to remark myself." "Have you guessed the riddle yet?" the Hatter said, turning to Alice again.
By the same token, it was the story of Jim Soolivan and his ould goat he was tellin' an' a plisant story it is an' there was so much divarsion in it, that it was enough to waken a dormouse, let alone to pervint a Christian goin' asleep.
"In this state the Yogis, like the bat, the hedge-hog, the marmot, the hamster and the dormouse, acquire the power of supporting the abstraction of atmospheric air, and the privation of food and drink. Of Samadhi or human hibernation there have been three cases within the last twenty-five years. The first case occurred in Calcutta, the second in Jesselmere, and the third in the Punjab.
The Dodo performed on the trapeze. The Mock Turtle and the Cheshire Cat took turns on a diminutive springboard. The March Hare and the Dormouse energetically jumped over a small barrel. The Queen and the Duchess had a fencing match, the Queen using her sceptre, the Duchess the rag baby she carried, and to which she had sung the "Pepper Song" at intervals during the performance.
There was a table set out under a tree in front of the house, and the March Hare and the Hatter were having tea at it: a Dormouse was sitting between them, fast asleep, and the other two were using it as a cushion, resting their elbows on it, and talking over its head. 'Very uncomfortable for the Dormouse, thought Alice; 'only, as it's asleep, I suppose it doesn't mind.
