    Excerpt from <cite>Alice's Adventures in Wonderland</cite>
    <blockquote>
        One day, a gloomy Alice sat by the riverbank with her sister. Suddenly, she saw a strange white rabbit passing by—it was dressed up, holding a pocket watch, talking to itself, and in a hurry.
        Curious Alice followed it and jumped down the rabbit hole. The hole was very, very deep, and after a long time, Alice finally landed. She was surprised to find herself in a strange hall, surrounded by many doors, all locked.
        She found a key but could only open a small door. Because the door was so small, she could only look through it and saw a beautiful garden beyond.
        She put the key on the table and elsewhere in the hall found a bottle labeled <q>Drink Me</q>.
        Without hesitation, Alice drank it and found herself shrinking, enough to pass through the small door, but she couldn’t retrieve the key on the table.
        In a panic, she found a cake labeled <q>Eat Me</q>. After eating it, Alice suddenly grew very large, so large that her head touched the ceiling.
