There was a long silence after this, and Alice could only hear whispers now and then; such as, \u2018Sure, I don\u2019t like it, yer honour, at all, at all!\u2019 \u2018Do as I tell you, you coward!\u2019 and at last she spread out her hand again, and made another snatch in the air. This time there were two<\/em> little shrieks, and more sounds of broken glass. \u2018What a number of cucumber-frames there must be!\u2019 thought Alice. \u2018I wonder what they\u2019ll do next! As for pulling me out of the window, I only wish they could<\/em>! I\u2019m sure I<\/em> don\u2019t want to stay in here any longer!\u2019 <\/p>\n\n\n\n She waited for some time without hearing anything more: at last came a rumbling of little cartwheels, and the sound of a good many voices all talking together: she made out the words: \u2018Where\u2019s the other ladder?\u2014Why, I hadn\u2019t to bring but one; Bill\u2019s got the other\u2014Bill! fetch it here, lad!\u2014Here, put \u2018em up at this corner\u2014No, tie \u2018em together first\u2014they don\u2019t reach half high enough yet\u2014Oh! they\u2019ll do well enough; don\u2019t be particular\u2014Here, Bill! catch hold of this rope\u2014Will the roof bear?\u2014Mind that loose slate\u2014Oh, it\u2019s coming down! Heads below!\u2019 (a loud crash)\u2014\u2018Now, who did that?\u2014It was Bill, I fancy\u2014Who\u2019s to go down the chimney?\u2014Nay, I<\/em> shan\u2019t! You<\/em> do it!\u2014That<\/em> I won\u2019t, then!\u2014Bill\u2019s to go down\u2014Here, Bill! the master says you\u2019re to go down the chimney!\u2019 <\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2018Oh! So Bill\u2019s got to come down the chimney, has he?\u2019 said Alice to herself. \u2018Shy, they seem to put everything upon Bill! I wouldn\u2019t be in Bill\u2019s place for a good deal: this fireplace is narrow, to be sure; but I think<\/em> I can kick a little!\u2019 <\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n She drew her foot as far down the chimney as she could, and waited till she heard a little animal (she couldn\u2019t guess of what sort it was) scratching and scrambling about in the chimney close above her: then, saying to herself \u2018This is Bill,\u2019 she gave one sharp kick, and waited to see what would happen next. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The first thing she heard was a general chorus of \u2018There goes Bill!\u2019 then the Rabbit\u2019s voice along\u2014\u2018Catch him, you by the hedge!\u2019 then silence, and then another confusion of voices\u2014\u2018Hold up his head\u2014Brandy now\u2014Don\u2019t choke him\u2014How was it, old fellow? What happened to you? Tell us all about it!\u2019 <\/p>\n\n\n\n Last came a little feeble, squeaking voice, (\u2018That\u2019s Bill,\u2019 thought Alice,) \u2018Well, I hardly know\u2014No more, thank ye; I\u2019m better now\u2014but I\u2019m a deal too flustered to tell you\u2014all I know is, something comes at me like a Jack-in-the-box, and up I goes like a sky-rocket!\u2019 <\/p>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" There was a long silence after this, and Alice could only hear whispers now and then; such as, \u2018Sure, I don\u2019t like it, yer honour, at all, at all!\u2019 \u2018Do as I tell you, you coward!\u2019 and at last she spread out her hand again, and made another snatch in the air.
