Алиса в Стране чудес / Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland
'I saw hatters,' she said to herself; 'the March Hare is more interesting.'
As she said this, she looked up, and there was the Cat again. It was sitting on a branch of a tree.
'Did you say pig, or fig?' said the Cat.
'I said pig,' replied Alice; 'can you appear and vanish not so fast, please?'
'All right,' said the Cat; and this time it vanished quite slowly. It began with the end of the tail, and ended with the grin. Its grin remained some time.
'Well! I saw a cat without a grin,' thought Alice; 'but a grin without a cat! How curious!'
She went farther and she saw the house of the March Hare. The chimneys were like ears and the roof was thatched with fur. It was a large house, and she ate a bit of the mushroom, and raised herself to about two feet high.
Chapter VII
A Mad Tea-Party
There was a table under a tree in front of the house, and the March Hare and the Hatter were having tea: a Dormouse was sitting between them, fast asleep. The March Hare and the Hatter were using it as a cushion. They were resting their elbows on it, and talking over its head.
