Алиса в стране чудес (3 эпизод The Pool of Tears)

THE POOL OF TEARS

Alice cried and cried, and her tears made a deep pool around her.

After a few minutes, she heard footsteps, and saw the white rabbit. He had a fan and a pair of white gloves. He looked worried, and he did not see Alice.

“Oh, the Duchess is going to be angry! I’m so late!” said the rabbit.

“Excuse me”- said Alice.

The rabbit turned round and saw Alice. He screamed, dropped the fan and the gloves, and ran away.

Alice picked up the fan and the gloves, and said, “Oh dear! Everything is so strange today!”

Suddenly, she saw that she was quite small again. “The fan is making me small !” she said and dropped it on the floor. “Now I can go through the door!”

She ran to the door, but it was shut, and the key was on the table again. Alice tried to climb up the table, but she fell and landed in a pool of water.

“What’s this?” said Alice. “Am I in the sea?”

But it wasn’t the sea.

“It’s the tears I cried when I was big!” said Alice. “Oh, why did I cry so much?”

Just then, Alice saw that she was not alone in the pool. There was a mouse, a duck, a dodo, a young eagle, and many other strange creatures. Alice and the animals started to swim, and they soon got to the shore of the pool of tears.
