` It 's all about as curious as it can be , ' said the Gryphon . ` It all came different ! ' the Mock Turtle repeated thoughtfully . ' I should like to hear her try and repeat something now . Tell her to begin . ' He looked at the Gryphon as if he thought it had some kind of authority over Alice . ` Stand up and repeat '' 'T IS THE VOICE OF THE SLUGGARD , '' ' said the Gryphon . ` How the creatures order one about , and make one repeat lessons ! ' thought Alice ; ' I might as well be at school at once . ' However , she got up , and began to repeat it , but her head was so full of the Lobster Quadrille , that she hardly knew what she was saying , and the words came very queer indeed : -- '' Tis the voice of the Lobster ; I heard him declare , `` You have baked me too brown , I must sugar my hair . '' As a duck with its eyelids , so he with his nose Trims his belt and his buttons , and turns out his toes . ' -LSB- later editions continued as follows When the sands are all dry , he is gay as a lark , And will talk in contemptuous tones of the Shark , But , when the tide rises and sharks are around , His voice has a timid and tremulous sound . -RSB- ` That 's different from what I used to say when I was a child , ' said the Gryphon . ` Well , I never heard it before , ' said the Mock Turtle ; ` but it sounds uncommon nonsense . ' Alice said nothing ; she had sat down with her face in her hands , wondering if anything would EVER happen in a natural way again . ' I should like to have it explained , ' said the Mock Turtle . ` She ca n't explain it , ' said the Gryphon hastily . ` Go on with the next verse . ' ` But about his toes ? ' the Mock Turtle persisted .
` How COULD he turn them out XXXXX his nose , you know ? '
