The kitten had been having a grand game of romps with the ball of worsted
She scrambled back into the arm-chair
And certainly the glass was beginning to melt away
In another moment Alice was through the glass
‘Here are the Red King and the Red Queen’
So Alice picked the King up very gently
‘The White Knight is sliding down the poker’
The Jabberwock
‘We can talk,’ said the Tiger-lily
She found herself face to face with the Red Queen
The ground between was divided up into squares
And they went so fast that at last they seemed to skim through the air
‘You’re travelling the wrong way’
The Rocking-horse-fly
The Snap-dragon-fly
The Bread-and-butter-fly
Alice with her arms clasped lovingly round the soft neck of the Fawn
They were standing under a tree, each with an arm round the other’s neck
The Walrus and the Carpenter were walking close at hand
And all the little Oysters stood and waited in a row
With sobs and tears he sorted out those of the largest size
The King had a tall red night-cap on, with a tassel
Tweedledum began to stamp about wildly and tear his hair
‘Really they’ll be more like bundles of old clothes than anything else!’
She helped her to put on her shawl again
the King’s Messenger is in prison now
Was it really a sheep that was sitting on the other side of the counter?
The boat glided gently on
He leant forwards and offered Alice his hand
Toves, borogroves and raths in the wabe
‘I went and shouted in his ear’
The confusion got worse every moment
The Messenger handed a sandwich to the King
Hatta only munched away, and drank some more tea
‘It’s a fabulous monster!’
But before Alice could answer him, the drums began
They hold their clubs with their arms, as if they were Punch and Judy
Whenever the horse stopped, he fell off in front
They went on a little way in silence after this
She could see nothing but the soles of his feet
I saw an aged aged man, a-sitting on a gate
It was a golden crown
She found the Red Queen and the White Queen sitting close to her
In another moment both Queens were fast asleep
A very old Frog got up and hobbled slowly towards her
The leg of mutton got up in the dish and made a little bow to Alice
And then all sorts of things happened in a moment
‘I’ll shake you into a kitten!’
And it really was a kitten
So Alice hunted among the chessmen on the table till she had found the Red Queen
