1The Queen's Croquet-Ground A large rose-tree stood near the entrance of the garden: the roses growing on it were white,
2but there were three gardeners at it, busily painting them red. Alice thought this a very curious thing, and she went
3nearer to watch them, and just as she came up to them she heard one of them say, "Look out now, Five! Don't go splashing
4paint over me like that!" "I couldn't help it," said Five, in a sulky tone; "Seven jogged my elbow." On which Seven
5looked up and said, "That's right, Five! Always lay the blame on others!" "You'd better not talk!" said Five. "I heard
6the Queen say only yesterday you deserved to be beheaded!" "What for?" said the one who had spoken first. "That's none
7of your business, Two!" said Seven. "Yes, it is his business!" said Five, "and I'll tell him--it was for bringing the
8cook tulip-roots instead of onions." Seven flung down his brush, and had just begun "Well, of all the unjust things--"
9when his eye chanced to fall upon Alice, as she stood watching them, and he checked himself suddenly: the others looked
10round also, and all of them bowed low. "Would you tell me," said Alice, a little timidly, "why you are painting those
11roses?" Five and Seven said nothing, but looked at Two. Two began in a low voice, "Why the fact is, you see, Miss, this
12here ought to have been a red rose-tree, and we put a white one in by mistake; and if the Queen was to find it out, we
13should all have our heads cut off, you know. So you see, Miss, we're doing our best, afore she comes, to--" At this
14moment Five, who had been anxiously looking across the garden, called out "The Queen! The Queen!" and the three
15gardeners instantly threw themselves flat upon their faces. There was a sound of many footsteps, and Alice looked round,
16eager to see the Queen. First came ten soldiers carrying clubs; these were all shaped like the three gardeners, oblong
17and flat, with their hands and feet at the corners: next the ten courtiers; these were ornamented all over with
18diamonds, and walked two and two, as the soldiers did. After these came the royal children; there were ten of them, and
19the little dears came jumping merrily along hand in hand, in couples: they were all ornamented with hearts. Next came
20the guests, mostly Kings and Queens, and among them Alice recognised the White Rabbit: it was talking in a hurried
21nervous manner, smiling at everything that was said, and went by without noticing her. Then followed the Knave of
22Hearts, carrying the King's crown on a crimson velvet cushion; and, last of all this grand procession, came THE KING AND
23QUEEN OF HEARTS. Alice was rather doubtful whether she ought not to lie down on her face like the three gardeners, but
24she could not remember ever having heard of such a rule at processions; "and besides, what would be the use of a
25procession," thought she, "if people had all to lie down upon their faces, so that they couldn't see it?" So she stood
26still where she was, and waited. When the procession came opposite to Alice, they all stopped and looked at her, and the
27Queen said severely "Who is this?" She said it to the Knave of Hearts, who only bowed and smiled in reply. "Idiot!" said
28the Queen, tossing her head impatiently; and, turning to Alice, she went on, "What's your name, child?" "My name is
29Alice, so please your Majesty," said Alice very politely; but she added, to herself, "Why, they're only a pack of cards,
30after all. I needn't be afraid of them!" "And who are these?" said the Queen, pointing to the three gardeners who were
31lying round the rose-tree; for, you see, as they were lying on their faces, and the pattern on their backs was the same
32as the rest of the pack, she could not tell whether they were gardeners, or soldiers, or courtiers, or three of her own
33children. "How should I know?" said Alice, surprised at her own courage. "It's no business of mine." The Queen turned
34crimson with fury, and, after glaring at her for a moment like a wild beast, screamed "Off with her head! Off--"
35"Nonsense!" said Alice, very loudly and decidedly, and the Queen was silent. The King laid his hand upon her arm, and
36timidly said "Consider, my dear: she is only a child!" The Queen turned angrily away from him, and said to the Knave
37"Turn them over!" The Knave did so, very carefully, with one foot. "Get up!" said the Queen, in a shrill, loud voice,
38and the three gardeners instantly jumped up, and began bowing to the King, the Queen, the royal children, and everybody
39else. "Leave off that!" screamed the Queen. "You make me giddy." And then, turning to the rose-tree, she went on, "What
40have you been doing here?" "May it please your Majesty," said Two, in a very humble tone, going down on one knee as he
41spoke, "we were trying--" "I see!" said the Queen, who had meanwhile been examining the roses. "Off with their heads!"
42and the procession moved on, three of the soldiers remaining behind to execute the unfortunate gardeners, who ran to
43Alice for protection. "You shan't be beheaded!" said Alice, and she put them into a large flower-pot that stood near.
44The three soldiers wandered about for a minute or two, looking for them, and then quietly marched off after the others.
45"Are their heads off?" shouted the Queen. "Their heads are gone, if it please your Majesty!" the soldiers shouted in
46reply. "That's right!" shouted the Queen. "Can you play croquet?" The soldiers were silent, and looked at Alice, as the
47question was evidently meant for her. "Yes!" shouted Alice. "Come on, then!" roared the Queen, and Alice joined the
48procession, wondering very much what would happen next. "It's--it's a very fine day!" said a timid voice at her side.
49She was walking by the White Rabbit, who was peeping anxiously into her face. "Very," said Alice: "--where's the
50Duchess?" "Hush! Hush!" said the Rabbit in a low, hurried tone. He looked anxiously over his shoulder as he spoke, and
51then raised himself upon tiptoe, put his mouth close to her ear, and whispered "She's under sentence of execution."
52"What for?" said Alice. "Did you say 'What a pity!'?" the Rabbit asked. "No, I didn't," said Alice: "I don't think it's
53at all a pity. I said 'What for?'" "She boxed the Queen's ears--" the Rabbit began. Alice gave a little scream of
54laughter. "Oh, hush!" the Rabbit whispered in a frightened tone. "The Queen will hear you! You see, she came rather
55late, and the Queen said--" "Get to your places!" shouted the Queen in a voice of thunder, and people began running
56about in all directions, tumbling up against each other; however, they got settled down in a minute or two, and the game
57began. Alice thought she had never seen such a curious croquet-ground in her life; it was all ridges and furrows; the
58balls were live hedgehogs, the mallets live flamingoes, and the soldiers had to double themselves up and to stand on
59their hands and feet, to make the arches. The chief difficulty Alice found at first was in managing her flamingo: she
60succeeded in getting its body tucked away, comfortably enough, under her arm, with its legs hanging down, but generally,
61just as she had got its neck nicely straightened out, and was going to give the hedgehog a blow with its head, it would
62twist itself round and look up in her face, with such a puzzled expression that she could not help bursting out
63laughing: and when she had got its head down, and was going to begin again, it was very provoking to find that the
64hedgehog had unrolled itself, and was in the act of crawling away: besides all this, there was generally a ridge or
65furrow in the way wherever she wanted to send the hedgehog to, and, as the doubled-up soldiers were always getting up
66and walking off to other parts of the ground, Alice soon came to the conclusion that it was a very difficult game
67indeed. The players all played at once without waiting for turns, quarrelling all the while, and fighting for the
68hedgehogs; and in a very short time the Queen was in a furious passion, and went stamping about, and shouting "Off with
69his head!" or "Off with her head!" about once in a minute.
