I do believe , ' said Alice at last , ` that they live in the same house ! I wonder I never thought of that before -- But I ca n't stay there long . I 'll just call and say `` how d'you do ? '' and ask them the way out of the wood . If I could only get to the Eighth Square before it gets dark ! ' So she wandered on , talking to herself as she went , till , on turning a sharp corner , she came upon two fat little men , so suddenly that she could not help starting back , but in another moment she recovered herself , feeling sure that they must be . CHAPTER IV . Tweedledum And Tweedledee They were standing under a tree , each with an arm round the other 's neck , and Alice knew which was which in a moment , because one of them had ` DUM ' embroidered on his collar , and the other ` DEE . ' ' I suppose they 've each got `` TWEEDLE '' round at the back of the collar , ' she said to herself . They stood so still that she quite forgot they were alive , and she was just looking round to see if the word `` TWEEDLE '' was written at the back of each collar , when she was startled by a voice coming from the one marked ` DUM . ' ` If you think we 're wax-works , ' he said , ` you ought to pay , you know . Wax-works were n't made to be looked at for nothing , nohow ! ' ` Contrariwise , ' added the one marked ` DEE , ' ` if you think we 're alive , you ought to speak . ' ` I 'm sure I 'm very sorry , ' was all Alice could say ; for the words of the old song kept ringing through her head like the ticking of a clock , and she could hardly help saying them out loud : -- ` Tweedledum and Tweedledee Agreed to have a battle ; For Tweedledum said Tweedledee Had spoiled his nice new rattle . Just then flew down a monstrous crow , As black as a tar-barrel ; Which frightened both the heroes so , They quite forgot their quarrel . ' ' I know what you 're thinking about , ' said Tweedledum : ` but it is n't so , nohow . ' ` Contrariwise , ' continued Tweedledee , ` if it was so , it might be ; and if it were so , it would be ; but as it is n't , it ai n't . That 's logic . ' ' I was thinking , ' Alice said very politely , ` which is the best way out of this wood : it 's getting so dark . Would you tell me , please ? '
But the little XXXXX only looked at each other and grinned .
