" A loaf of bread," the Walrus said,
"Is what we chiefly need :
Pepper and vinegar besides
Are very good indeed—
Now if you're ready, Oysters dear,
We can begin to feed." |

" But not on us!" the Oysters cried,
. Turning a little blue. " After such kindness, that would be
A dismal thing to do!" " The night is fine," the Walrus said.
" Do you admire the view ?
"It was so kind of you to come! And you are very nice!" The Carpenter said nothing but " Cut us another slice : I wish you were not quite so deaf— I 've had to ask you twice!" |
