Soup of the evening , beautiful Soup ! Soup of the evening , beautiful Soup ! Beau -- ootiful Soo -- oop ! Beau -- ootiful Soo -- oop ! Soo -- oop of the e -- e -- evening , Beautiful beautiful Soup ! `` Chorus again ! '' cried the Gryphon , and the Mock Turtle had just begun to repeat it , when a cry of `` the trial 's beginning ! '' was heard in the distance . `` Come on ! '' cried the Gryphon , and , taking Alice by the hand , he hurried off , without waiting for the end of the song . `` What trial is it ? '' panted Alice as she ran , but the Gryphon only answered `` come on ! '' and ran the faster , and more and more faintly came , borne on the breeze that followed them , the melancholy words : `` Soo -- oop of the e -- e -- evening , Beautiful beautiful Soup ! '' The King and Queen were seated on their throne when they arrived , with a great crowd assembled around them : the Knave was in custody : and before the King stood the white rabbit , with a trumpet in one hand , and a scroll of parchment in the other . `` Herald ! read the accusation ! '' said the King . On this the white rabbit blew three blasts on the trumpet , and then unrolled the parchment scroll , and read as follows : -LSB- Illustration -RSB- `` The Queen of Hearts she made some tarts All on a summer day : The Knave of Hearts he stole those tarts , And took them quite away ! '' -LSB- Illustration -RSB- `` Now for the evidence , '' said the King , `` and then the sentence . '' `` No ! ''
said the XXXXX , `` first the sentence , and then the evidence ! ''
