'That's very curious.' 'It's all about as curious as it can be,' said
the Gryphon. 'It all came different!' the Mock Turtle repeated
thoughtfully. 'I should like to hear her try and repeat something now.
Tell her to begin.' He looked at the Gryphon as if he thought it had
some kind of authority over Alice. 'Stand up and repeat "'TIS THE VOICE
OF THE SLUGGARD,"' said the Gryphon. 'How the creatures order one
about, and make one repeat lessons!' thought Alice; 'I might as well be
at school at once.' However, she got up, and began to repeat it, but
her head was so full of the Lobster Quadrille, that she hardly knew
what she was saying, and the words came very queer indeed:— ''Tis the
voice of the Lobster; I heard him declare, "You have baked me too
brown, I must sugar my hair." As a duck with its eyelids, so he with
his nose Trims his belt and his buttons, and turns out his toes.
