To the Looking-Glass world it was Alice that said
I’ve a sceptre in hand, I’ve a crown on my head
Let the Looking-Glass creatures, whatever they be
Come and dine with the Red Queen, the White Queen, and me!’

Then fill up the glasses as quick as you can
And sprinkle the table with buttons and bran
Put cats in the coffee, and mice in the tea-
And welcome Queen Alice
with thirty-times-three!

O Looking-Glass creatures, quoth Alice, draw near!
‘Tis an honour to see me, a favor to hear
‘Tis a privilege high to have dinner and tea
Along with the Red Queen, the White Queen and me!

Then fill up the glasses with treacle and inc
Or anything else that is pleasant to drink
Mix sand with the cider, and wool with the wine-
And welcome Queen Alice
with ninety-times-nine!

Ninety-times-nine!
Oh, that’ll never be done! I’d better go in at once
