There

were

three

chairs

at

the

head

of

the

table

;

the

Red

and

White

Queens

had

already

taken

two

of

them

,

but

the

middle

one

was

empty

.

Alice

sat

down

in

it

,

rather

uncomfortable

in

the

silence

,

and

longing

for

some

one

to

speak

.

At

last

the

Red

Queen

began

.

'

You

've

missed

the

soup

and

fish

,

'

she

said

.

'

Put

on

the

joint

!

'

And

the

waiters

set

a

leg

of

mutton

before

Alice

,

who

looked

at

it

rather

anxiously

,

as

she

had

never

had

to

carve

a

joint

before

.

'

You

look

a

little

shy

;

let

me

introduce

you

to

that

leg

of

mutton

,

'

said

the

Red

Queen

.

'

Alice

--

Mutton

;

Mutton

--

Alice

.

'

The

leg

of

mutton

got

up

in

the

dish

and

made

a

little

bow

to

Alice

;

and

Alice

returned

the

bow

,

not

knowing

whether

to

be

frightened

or

amused

.

May

I

give

you

a

slice

?

'

she

said

,

taking

up

the

knife

and

fork

,

and

looking

from

one

Queen

to

the

other

.

'

Certainly

not

,

'

the

Red

Queen

said

,

very

decidedly

:

'

it

is

n't

etiquette

to

cut

any

one

you

've

been

introduced

to

.

Remove

the

joint

!

'

And

the

waiters

carried

it

off

,

and

brought

a

large

plum-pudding

in

its

place

.

'

I

wo

n't

be

introduced

to

the

pudding

,

please

,

'

Alice

said

rather

hastily

,

'

or

we

shall

get

no

dinner

at

all

.

May

I

give

you

some

?

'

But

the

Red

Queen

looked

sulky

,

and

growled

'

Pudding

--

Alice

;

Alice

--

Pudding

.

Remove

the

pudding

!

'

and

the

waiters

took

it

away

so

quickly

that

Alice

could

n't

return

its

bow

.

However

,

she

did

n't

see

why

the

Red

Queen

should

be

the

only

one

to

give

orders

,

so

,

as

an

experiment

,

she

called

out

'

Waiter

!

Bring

back

the

pudding

!

'

and

there

it

was

again

in

a

moment

like

a

conjuring-trick

.

It

was

so

large

that

she

could

n't

help

feeling

a

little

shy

with

it

,

as

she

had

been

with

the

mutton

;

however

,

she

conquered

her

shyness

by

a

great

effort

and

cut

a

slice

and

handed

it

to

the

Red

Queen

.

'

What

impertinence

!

'

said

the

Pudding

.

'

I

wonder

how

you

'd

like

it

,

if

I

were

to

cut

a

slice

out

of

you

,

you

creature

!
