I didn’t know it was your table. It’s laid for a great many more than three.
Your hair wants cutting
Twinkle twinkle little bat! How I wonder what you’re at!
No room! No Room! No room!
You should learn not to make personal remarks it’s very rude.
Why is a raven like a writing desk?
I do. At least I mean what I say. That’s the same thing you know.
Not the same thing a bit! You might just as we’ll say that I see what I eat is the same thing as I eat what I see!
You might just as well say that I breath when I sleep is the same thing as I sleep when I breathe
It is the same thing with you! what day of the month is it?
The fourth
Two days wrong! I told you butter wouldn’t suit the works!
It was the best butter.
Yes. But some crumbs must have gotten in as well. You shouldn’t have put it in with the bread knife.
What a funny watch! It tells the day of the month and doesn’t tell the o’clock.
Why should it? Does you watch tell you what year it is?

Of course of course just what I was going to remark myself.
Have you guessed the riddle yet?
No I give it up. What’s the answer?
I haven’t the slightest idea.

If you knew time as well as I do, you wouldn’t talk about wasting it. It’s a him.
I don’t know what you mean.
Of course you don’t! I dare say you never even spoke to time!
Perhaps not. But I know I have to beat time when I learn music.
Ah! That accounts for it! he won’t stand beating! now if you only kept good terms with him he’d do almost anything you liked with the clock for instance suppose it were 9 o’clock in the morning just time to begin lessons you’d only have to whisper a hint to Time and round goes the clock in a twinkling! Half past one! Time for dinner!
