Alice opened the door and found that it led into a small passage, not much larger than a rat-hole: she knelt down and looked along the passage into the loveliest garden you ever saw. How she longed to get out of that dark hall and wander about among those beds of bright flowers and those cool fountains, but she could not even get her head through the doorway,and even if my head would go through" thought poor
Alice ,it would be of very little use without my shoulders.
Oh, how I wish I could shut up like a telescope! I think I could, if I only knew how to begin" For, you see, so many out-of-the- way things had happened lately, that Alice had begun to think that very few things indeed were really impossible
Suddenly she came upon a little three-legged table, all made of solid glass: there was nothing on it but a tiny golden key, and Alice \'s first idea was that this might belong to one of the doors of the hall, but, alas! Either the locks were too large, or the key was too small, but at any rate it would not open any of them. However, on the second time round, she came upon a low curtain she had not noticed before, and behind it was a little door about fifteen inches high: she tried the little golden key in the lock, and to her great delight it fitted!
Soon her eye fell on a little glass box that was lying under the table: she opened it, and found in it a very small cake, on which the words EAT ME were beautifully marked in currants. Well, I\'ll eat it said Alice , and if it makes me grow larger, I can reach the key; and if it makes me grow smaller, I can creep under the door: so either way I\'ll get into the garden, and I don\'t care which happens!" She ate a little bit, and said anxiously to herself which way?
Which way?
Holding her hand on the top of her head to feel which way it was growing, and she was quite surprised to find that she remained the same size. To be sure, this is what generally happens when one eats cake; but Alice had got so much into the way of expecting nothing but out-of-the-way things to happen, that it seemed quite dull and stupid for life to go on in the common way.
