Who said the following quote and what movie is it from? "How doth the little crocodile improve his shining tail. And pour the waters of the Nile, on every golden scale. How cheerfully he seems to grin, how neatly spreads his claws. And welcomes little fishes in, with gently smiling jaws."

 

 

What poem is this saying a parity of?

This is from Alice in Wonderland the person who said it was Alice herself. (I would know! When I was in the third grade I took ballet and I had to recite this poem to the audience.)

 

 

What poem is this saying a parity of?

 

Something from Shakespeare I think. I have no idea.

 

[Torrie]

It is a parity from "Against Idleness And Mischief", a poem in Divine Songs for Children, by Isaac Watts, which goes:

How doth the little busy Bee

Improve each shining Hour,

And gather Honey all the day

From every opening Flower!

 

How skilfully she builds her Cell!

How neat she spreads the Wax!

And labours hard to store it well

With the sweet Food she makes.

 

In Works of Labour or of Skill

I would be busy too:

For Satan finds some Mischief still

For idle Hands to do.

 

In Books, or Work, or healthful Play

Let my first Years be past,

That I may give for every Day

Some good Account at last.

 

Children were made to dress up and recite poems at parties for their parents, when this poem was written. Alice and Wonderland is full of parities about this and other practices.

 

 

Your turn, BaLe!

How close was I/ :D

[Celarisa]

Well according to Disney...there is only one "ride" at the park.  And it is the tram ride from the parking lot to the park entrance.  Everything else is an "attraction."  The things they make you remember when you work for Disneyland!  haha  ;)I also now use only Disney characters for letters when I have to spell something for someone.  Forget Alpha or Bravo...I use Aladdin or Alice and Belle!  ;)

[Torrie]

Great questions! I so an ready to go to Disney World. I am waiting for my kids to get a little older so they remember it.
