A MAD TEA-PARTY. 111
Alice as she picked her way through the wood.
“It’s the stupidest tea-party I ever was at in
all my life!”
Just as she said this, she noticed that one
of the trees had a dvor leading right into it.
“That's very curious!” she thought. “But every¬
thing’s curious to-day. I thik I may as well
go in at once.” And in she went.
Once more she found herself in the long hali,
and close to the little glass table. “Now, I'll
manage better this time,” she said to herself,
and began by taking the little golden key, and
unlocking the door that led into the garden.
Then she set to work nibbling at the mushroom
(she had kept a piece of it in her pocket) till
she was about a foot high: then she walked
down the little passage: and then—she found
herself at last in the beautiful garden, among
the bright flower-beds and the cool fountains.
