1$\begingroup$ The first two lines could be "prison+wards" = "PRESS ONWARDS". $\endgroup$ – Gamow Mar 17 '16 at 16:25

$\begingroup$ Good point @Gamow. That would also imply that the last line is a verdict, but I can't match it to your idea. $\endgroup$ – Khale_Kitha Mar 17 '16 at 19:22

$\begingroup$ Um, wow. I came across this phrase a LOT in my research but was so busy trying to figure out what "wards" could refer to that I didn't even think of it that way. :B $\endgroup$ – feelinferrety Mar 17 '16 at 20:45

$\begingroup$ This is probably it. I was thinking the reference to Wonderland was to throw people onto the wrong track, but this fits too perfectly. $\endgroup$ – InternetHobo Mar 17 '16 at 21:14

$\begingroup$ The reference to Wonderland could fit if that is a quote from the (Bloody Red) Queen. $\endgroup$ – Z. Dailey Mar 18 '16 at 4:21

1$\begingroup$ It's definitely a direct quote from the Queen from Alice in Wonderland. My attribution to "the Queen" is a link to the chapter in which the line occurs. The chapter was the closest I could get, couldn't get directly to the line, sorry. $\endgroup$ – Dylan Cristy Mar 18 '16 at 4:45
