Humpty Dumpty

Too proud?

Alice

What a beautiful belt you’ve got on. At least, a beautiful cravat, I should have said—no, a belt, I mean—I beg your pardon. If only I knew which was neck and which was waist.

Humpty Dumpty

It is a—most—provoking—thing, when a person doesn’t know a cravat from a belt.

Alice

I know it’s very ignorant of me.

Humpty Dumpty

It’s a cravat, child, and a beautiful one, as you say. There’s glory for you.
