An invitation from the Queen

to play croquet.

My compliments to the Queen.

My compliments

to the Duchess.

There's no sort of

use in your knocking.

Please, sir,

how am I to get in?

I shall sit here

till tomorrow.

I'm sorry you were hit,

but how am I to get in?

I shall sit here

for days and days.

But what am I to do?

Anything you like.

Please watch

out for the baby!

She nearly killed

the poor little thing.

If everybody minded

their own business,

the world would go round

much faster than it does.

Speak roughly to your little

boy And beat him when he sneezes

He only does it to annoy

Because he knows it teases

Wow! Wow! Wow!

Wow!

Wow!

Wow!

He only does it to annoy

Because he knows it teases

Here, you can nurse

it a bit if you like.

Now, I must go and get ready

to play croquet with the Queen.

Don't grunt. That's not at all a

proper way of expressing yourself.

What am I going to do with this

creature when I get it home?

If you're going to

turn into a pig, my dear,

I'll have nothing more

to do with you. Mind now!

There's no mistake about

you now. You're a pig!

You would have grown up to

be a dreadfully ugly child,

but you do make a handsome pig, I think.

Why do you grin, oh, cat?

Because I'm a Cheshire Cat, that's why.

Well, then,

Cheshire puss,

would you tell me, please, which

way I ought to go from here?

That depends a good deal

on where you want to get to.

I don't care much where.

Then it doesn't matter

which way you go.

So long as

I get somewhere.

You're sure to do that,

if you only walk long enough.

Do you play croquet

with the Queen today?

I should like it very much,

but I haven't been invited yet.

You'll see me there.

Must you go so soon?

By the by, what became

of the baby?

I'd nearly forgotten to ask.

It turned into a pig.

I thought it would.

Did you say pig or fig?

I said pig

and I wish you wouldn't keep

appearing and vanishing so suddenly.

You make one quite giddy.

All right.

Don't you wish

you could do this?

Well, I've often seen a cat without

a grin, but a grin without a cat?

No room! No room!

No room! No room!

There's plenty of room!

Have some wine?

I don't see any wine.

There isn't any.

It wasn't very civil

of you to offer it.

Your hair needs cutting.

You should not make personal

remarks. It's very rude.

Why is a raven

like a writing desk?

I believe I can

answer that.

Do you mean you can

find the answer to it?

Exactly so.

You should say

what you mean.

What day of

the month is it?

Fourth.

Ah! Two days wrong.

I told you that butter

wouldn't suit the works.

Oh!

Some crumbs must

have got in it as well.

Hmm. I put it in

with a bread knife.
