Also, siehst du, meine liebe Dormouse, sagte der andere, wir könnten dich mit uns ausziehen, es sei denn du verfallst in unsere Pläne und unterwirft uns, dich zu rufen, was wir wollen. Ich verstehe nicht, warum Sie nicht bereit sind zuzugeben, dass ich ein Junge bin, aber, darauf Tom, der, obwohl er extrem ängstlich togo weg mit den Andirons war, nicht wirklich gerne aus den Augen verlieren die Tatsache, dass er ein Junge war.
