Only it got so cold , and it snowed so , they had to leave off . Never mind , Kitty , we 'll go and see the bonfire to-morrow . ' Here Alice wound two or three turns of the worsted round the kitten 's neck , just to see how it would look : this led to a scramble , in which the ball rolled down upon the floor , and yards and yards of it got unwound again . ` Do you know , I was so angry , Kitty , ' Alice went on as soon as they were comfortably settled again , ` when I saw all the mischief you had been doing , I was very nearly opening the window , and putting you out into the snow ! And you 'd have deserved it , you little mischievous darling ! What have you got to say for yourself ? Now do n't interrupt me ! ' she went on , holding up one finger . ` I 'm going to tell you all your faults . Number one : you squeaked twice while Dinah was washing your face this morning . Now you ca n't deny it , Kitty : I heard you ! What 's that you say ? ' -LRB- pretending that the kitten was speaking . -RRB- ` Her paw went into your eye ? Well , that 's YOUR fault , for keeping your eyes open -- if you 'd shut them tight up , it would n't have happened . Now do n't make any more excuses , but listen ! Number two : you pulled Snowdrop away by the tail just as I had put down the saucer of milk before her ! What , you were thirsty , were you ? How do you know she was n't thirsty too ? Now for number three : you unwound every bit of the worsted while I was n't looking !
` That 's three faults , XXXXX , and you 've not been punished for any of them yet .
