Of course, my cook puts it in the soup.


Alice

There’s certainly too much pepper in the soup.

Duchess

Sneeze then and get rid of it!

[Duchess begins to sing to the baby, giving it a violent shake at the end of every line of the lullaby.]

“Speak roughly to your little boy,
And beat him when he sneezes;

[Frog and Alice sneeze.]

He only does it to annoy,
Because he knows it teases.

[Duchess sneezes, Frog sneezes, Alice sneezes.]
