` Consider what a great girl you are . Consider what a long way you 've come to-day . Consider what o'clock it is . Consider anything , only do n't cry ! ' Alice could not help laughing at this , even in the midst of her tears . ` Can YOU keep from crying by considering things ? ' she asked . ` That 's the way it 's done , ' the Queen said with great decision : ` nobody can do two things at once , you know . Let 's consider your age to begin with -- how old are you ? ' ` I 'm seven and a half exactly . ' ` You need n't say `` exactually , '' ' the Queen remarked : ' I can believe it without that . Now I 'll give YOU something to believe . I 'm just one hundred and one , five months and a day . ' ' I ca n't believe THAT ! ' said Alice . ` Ca n't you ? ' the Queen said in a pitying tone . ` Try again : draw a long breath , and shut your eyes . ' Alice laughed . ` There 's no use trying , ' she said : ` one CA N'T believe impossible things . ' '
I daresay you have n't had much practice , ' said the XXXXX .
