` No , no , ' she cried . ` It is just for spring-cleaning time , ' Jane said ; ` he wants me always to do his spring cleaning . ' ` If only I could go with you , ' Wendy sighed . ` You see you ca n't fly , ' said Jane . Of course in the end Wendy let them fly away together . Our last glimpse of her shows her at the window , watching them receding into the sky until they were as small as stars . As you look at Wendy you may see her hair becoming white , and her figure little again , for all this happened long ago . Jane is now a common grown-up , with a daughter called Margaret ; and every spring-cleaning time , except when he forgets , Peter comes for Margaret and takes her to the Neverland , where she tells him stories about himself , to which he listens eagerly . When Margaret grows up she will have a daughter , who is to be Peter 's mother in turn ; and thus it will go on , so long as children are gay and innocent and heartless . Chapter 1 -LSB- Illustration -RSB- Alice was beginning to get very tired of sitting by her sister on the bank , and of having nothing to do : once or twice she had peeped into the book her sister was reading , but it had no pictures or conversations in it , and where is the use of a book , thought Alice , without pictures or conversations ? So she was considering in her own mind , -LRB- as well as she could , for the hot day made her feel very sleepy and stupid , -RRB- whether the pleasure of making a daisy-chain was worth the trouble of getting up and picking the daisies , when a white rabbit with pink eyes ran close by her . There was nothing very remarkable in that , nor did Alice think it so very much out of the way to hear the rabbit say to itself `` dear , dear ! I shall be too late ! '' -LRB- when she thought it over afterwards , it occurred to her that she ought to have wondered at this , but at the time it all seemed quite natural -RRB- ; but when the rabbit actually took a watch out of its waistcoat-pocket , looked at it , and then hurried on , Alice started to her feet , for it flashed across her mind that she had never before seen a rabbit with either a waistcoat-pocket or a watch to take out of it , and , full of curiosity , she hurried across the field after it , and was just in time to see it pop down a large rabbit-hole under the hedge . In a moment down went Alice after it , never once considering how in the world she was to get out again . The rabbit-hole went straight on like a tunnel for some way , and then dipped suddenly down , so suddenly , that Alice had not a moment to think about stopping herself , before she found herself falling down what seemed a deep well . Either the well was very deep , or she fell very slowly , for she had plenty of time as she went down to look about her , and to wonder what would happen next . First , she tried to look down and make out what she was coming to , but it was too dark to see anything : then , she looked at the sides of the well , and noticed that they were filled with cupboards and book-shelves : here and there were maps and pictures hung on pegs . She took a jar down off one of the shelves as she passed : it was labelled `` Orange Marmalade , '' but to her great disappointment it was empty : she did not like to drop the jar , for fear of killing somebody underneath , so managed to put it into one of the cupboards as she fell past it . `` Well ! ''
thought XXXXX to herself , `` after such a fall as this , I shall think nothing of tumbling down stairs !
