    Chapter 12 of "Through the Looking-Glass" by Lewis Carroll is titled "Which dreamed it." The last chapter opens with Alice rubbing her eyes and chastising Kitty, the black kitten. Alice is convinced Kitty was with her in the Looking-glass world and decides Kitty was, in fact, the Red Queen. She further decides that Snowdrop, the white kitten, was the White Queen and her cat, Dinah, was Humpty Dumpty. Then she comes to the crucial issue: "who it was that dreamed it all?" This was the question she'd pondered when she first encountered the sleeping king and had a discussion with Tweedledum and Tweedledee. Now she decides, "it must have been either me or the Red King. He was part of my dream, of course—but then I was part of his dream, too!"
