Where it comes from
Lewis Carroll wrote it in chapter 1 of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. Here is the prose either side of it, with the sentence you are solving left out.
The sentence you are solving goes here.
Alice was not a bit hurt, and she jumped up on to her feet in a moment: she looked up, but it was all dark overhead; before her was another long passage, and the White Rabbit was still in sight, hurrying down it. There was not a moment to be lost: away went Alice like the wind, and was just in time to hear it say, as it turned a corner, "Oh my ears and whiskers, how late it's getting!" She was close behind it when she turned the corner, but the Rabbit was no longer to be seen: she found herself in a long, low hall, which was lit up by a row of lamps hanging from the roof.
One paragraph next to it is a cryptogram here in its own right, so it is left out too: the medium one from chapter 1.
Text from the Project Gutenberg edition, which is in the public domain in the United States.
