` What ! Never heard of uglifying ! ' it exclaimed . ` You know what to beautify is , I suppose ? ' ` Yes , ' said Alice doubtfully : ` it means -- to -- make -- anything -- prettier . ' ` Well , then , ' the Gryphon went on , ` if you do n't know what to uglify is , you ARE a simpleton . ' Alice did not feel encouraged to ask any more questions about it , so she turned to the Mock Turtle , and said ` What else had you to learn ? ' ` Well , there was Mystery , ' the Mock Turtle replied , counting off the subjects on his flappers , ' -- Mystery , ancient and modern , with Seaography : then Drawling -- the Drawling-master was an old conger-eel , that used to come once a week : HE taught us Drawling , Stretching , and Fainting in Coils . ' ` What was THAT like ? ' said Alice . ` Well , I ca n't show it you myself , ' the Mock Turtle said : ` I 'm too stiff . And the Gryphon never learnt it . ' ` Had n't time , ' said the Gryphon : ' I went to the Classics master , though . He was an old crab , HE was . ' ' I never went to him , ' the Mock Turtle said with a sigh : ` he taught Laughing and Grief , they used to say . ' ` So he did , so he did , ' said the Gryphon , sighing in his turn ; and both creatures hid their faces in their paws . ` And how many hours a day did you do lessons ? ' said Alice , in a hurry to change the subject . ` Ten hours the first day , ' said the Mock Turtle : ` nine the next , and so on . ' ` What a curious plan ! '
