THROUGH THE LOOKING-GLASS

CHAPTER I. Looking-Glass house
|
|
|
|
One thing was certain, that the WHITE kitten had had nothing to do with
|
|
it:--it was the black kitten's fault entirely. For the white kitten had
|
|
been having its face washed by the old cat for the last quarter of
|
|
an hour (and bearing it pretty well, considering); so you see that it
|
|
COULDN'T have had any hand in the mischief.
|
|
|
|
The way Dinah washed her children's faces was this: first she held the
|
|
poor thing down by its ear with one paw, and then with the other paw she
|
|
rubbed its face all over, the wrong way, beginning at the nose: and
|
|
just now, as I said, she was hard at work on the white kitten, which was
|
|
lying quite still and trying to purr--no doubt feeling that it was all
|
|
meant for its good.
|
|
|
|
But the black kitten had been finished with earlier in the afternoon,
|
|
and so, while Alice was sitting curled up in a corner of the great
|
|
arm-chair, half talking to herself and half asleep, the kitten had been
|
|
having a grand game of romps with the ball of worsted Alice had been
|
|
trying to wind up, and had been rolling it up and down till it had all
|
|
come undone again; and there it was, spread over the hearth-rug, all
|
|
knots and tangles, with the kitten running after its own tail in the
|
|
midd
