Alice in Wonderland (37)

Alice went on, " But why did they live at the bottom of the well ? "

" Take some more tea, " the March Hare said to Alice, very earnestly.

" I've had nothong yet, " Alice replied in an offended tone, " so I can't take more. "

" You mean you can't take less, " said the Hatter; " It's very easy to take  more than nothong. "

" NObody asked your opininon, " said Alice.

" Who's making personal remarks now ? " the Hatter asked triumphantly.

Aice did not quite know what to say to this.
So she helped herself to some tea and bread-and -butter, and then turned to the Dormouse, and repeated her question.

" Why did they live at the bottom of the well ? "

The Dormouse again took a minute or two to think aboutit, and then said, " It was a treacle-well. "
