Alice in Wonderland (12)

Alice in Wonderland (12)

" What is a Caucus-race ? " Alice asked, not really wanting to know.

" The vest way to explain is to do it, " said the Dodo.
" I'll begin by making out the racecourse, in a sort of circle, the exact shape doesn't really matter. "

The Dodo then placed all the party along the course and told them to start running when they liked and leave off when they liked.

Alice and the Mouse watched them with interest.

After they had been running for half an hour and were quite dry again, the Dodo suddenly called out, " The race is over ！ "



And they all crowded round him, gasping and asking, " Who has won ？ "

This was a question Dodo could not answer immedately.

In fact he sat for a long time deep in thought.

At last he said, " Everyone has won, and all must have prizes. "
