1
Hush-a-by lady, in Alice's lap!
2
Til the feast's ready we've time for a nap:
3
When the feasts over, we'll go to the ball-
4
Red Queen, and White Queen, and Alice, and all!
5
('And now you know the words,' she added,
6
as she put her head down on Alice's other shoulder,
7
'just sing it through to me. I'm getting sleepy, too.'
8
In another moment both Queens were fast asleep,
9
and snoring loud.
10
At this moment the door was flung open, and a shrill voice was heard singing:)
11
To the Looking-Glass world it was Alice that said
12
'I've a sceptre in hand, I've a crown on my head;
13
Let the Looking-Glass creatures, whatever they be,
14
Come and dine with the Red Qeen, the White Queen, and me!'
15
(And hundreds of voices joined in the chorus:)
16
Then fill up the glasses as quick as you can,
17
And sprinkle the table with buttons and bran:
18
Put cats in the coffee, and mice in the tea-
19
And welcome Queen Alice
20
with thirty-times-three!
21
(Alice thought to herself, 'Thirty times three makes ninety.
22
I wonder if any one's counting?' In a minute there was silence again,
23
and the same shrill voice sang another verse:)
24
'O Looking-Glass creatures,' quoth Alice, 'draw near!
25
'Tis an honour to see me, a favor to hear:
26
'Tis a privilege high to have dinner and tea
27
Along with the Red Queen, the White Queen and me!'
28
(Then came the chorus again:)
29
Then fill up the glasses with treacle and inc,
30
Or anything else that is pleasant to drink;
31
Mix sand with the cider, and wool with the wine-
32
And welcome Queen Alice
33
with ninety-times-nine!
34
'Ninety-times-nine!' Alice repeated in despair.
35
'Oh, that'll never be done! I'd better go in at once.'
