'You're holding it upside down! Alice interrupted. 'To be sure I was! Humpty Dumpty said gaily, as she turned it round for him. 'I thought it looked a little queer. As I was saying, that SEEMS to be done right though I haven't time to look it over thoroughly just now and that shows that there are three hundred and sixty-four days when you might get un-birthday presents
The people at first glance regarded the announcement with some degree of doubt, but the appearance of the tent, with the flags flying, dispelled that fear. The tent seemed to have got there by magic. Like the palace of Aladdin, it had sprung into existence during the night. Its appearance excited curiosity and provoked gossip, and the announcement of "Humpty Dumpty" was a puzzle.
"Ivede-Avede," cried some. "Humpty Dumpty," cried others, and there was a fine shouting and crying out. But the fir-tree remained quite still, and thought to himself, "Shall I have anything to do with all this?" but he had already amused them as much as they wished. Then the old man told them the story of Humpty Dumpty, how he fell down stairs, and was raised up again, and married a princess.
'Humpty Dumpty fell downstairs and yet married a princess! yes, that is the way of the world! thought the tree, and was sure it must be true, because such a nice man had told the story. 'Well, who knows? Perhaps I shall fall downstairs and marry a princess. And it rejoiced to think that next day it would be decked out again with candles, toys, glittering ornaments, and fruits.
Mildenburg played it as a mixture of Lady Macbeth and Queen Gertrude, Hamlet's mother. And when she sang fortissimo all the Strauss horses and all the Strauss men were as supine, tonally speaking, as Humpty Dumpty. Her voice is of a sultry tonal splendour. The two new opera-houses also theatres are set in a park, as should be art and opera houses.
"Let's walk slowly," whispered Dumpty, quivering with excitement, "and perhaps she will catch us up." In a few minutes the old woman had overtaken them. All Nurse's injunctions were forgotten. The children stood still and stared, for Poor Jane was wearing a pair of brand new, red woollen gloves! Poor Jane saw them looking, and she crossed from the other side of the road and came near the children.
You will have a fall like Humpty Dumpty if you choose such high perches. Now what comfort can you find, may I ask, in such a blazing breakneck seat? Do you find broken bottles a soft cushion?" "We've cleared those rotten things away here," said Dudley, preparing to clamber down; "it's our watch tower, and we've a first-rate view, you just come up and see!"
I was rather harassed at the moment. My legs were sore, I was a little afraid of the dog, and Patty was very much afraid of sitting on the wall without me. "'You won't fall, I said to her. 'Get down, will you? I said to the dog. "'Humpty Dumpty fell off a wall, said Patty. "'Bow! wow! said the dog.
'Is it really? said Alice, quite pleased to find that she HAD chosen a good subject, after all. 'They gave it me, Humpty Dumpty continued thoughtfully, as he crossed one knee over the other and clasped his hands round it, 'they gave it me for an un-birthday present. 'I beg your pardon? Alice said with a puzzled air. 'I'm not offended, said Humpty Dumpty.
But Master Gracington, with downcast eyes, knelt before the throne and spoke in this wise: "This is my riddle, oh King: Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall, Humpty Dumpty had a great fall All the King's horses And all the King's men Cannot put Humpty together again!" "Read me that, sire, an' you will!"
