"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, 'Tis the voice of the sluggard," said the Gryphon. "How the creatures order one about, and make one repeat lessons!" thought Alice. "I might just as well be at school at once."
Roberts, with bare feet and a rope round his neck, comes forward, performs Kadambosi and presents the keys of Sherpur to the Gryphon, who hands them graciously to his Extra Assistant Deputy Khidmatgar General.
Alice panted as she ran; but the Gryphon only answered, "Come on!" and ran the faster, while more and more faintly came, carried on the breeze that followed them, the melancholy words: "Soo oop of the e e evening, Beautiful, beautiful Soup!" By Lewis Carroll
"And what are they made of?" Alice asked in a tone of great curiosity. "Soles and eels, of course," the Gryphon replied, rather impatiently: "any shrimp could have told you that." "If I'd been the whiting," said Alice, whose thoughts were still running on the song, "I'd have said to the porpoise, 'Keep back, please! We don't want you with us!"
As they walked off together, Alice heard the King say in a low voice, to the company generally, 'You are all pardoned. 'Come, THAT'S a good thing! she said to herself, for she had felt quite unhappy at the number of executions the Queen had ordered. They very soon came upon a Gryphon, lying fast asleep in the sun.
These words were followed by a very long silence, broken only by an occasional exclamation of 'Hjckrrh! from the Gryphon, and the constant heavy sobbing of the Mock Turtle. Alice was very nearly getting up and saying, 'Thank you, sir, for your interesting story, but she could not help thinking there MUST be more to come, so she sat still and said nothing.
Besides these two crests, both of which the Marquis Montagu may have used, he certainly did use the Gryphon, issuant out of a ducal coronet, as this appears alone for his crest, on his garter plate, as a crest for Montagu, he having given the arms of that family precedence over his paternal coat of Nevile; the king- maker, likewise, upon his seal, gives the precedence to Montagu and Monthermer, and they alone appear upon his shield."
The Gryphon sat up and rubbed its eyes: then it watched the Queen till she was out of sight: then it chuckled. "What fun!" said the Gryphon, half to itself, half to Alice. "What is the fun?" said Alice. "Why, she," said the Gryphon. "It's all her fancy, that: they never executes nobody, you know. Come on!"

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." "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."
