Read this excerpt from Through the Looking-Glass by Lewis Carroll. “I don't know what you mean by YOUR way,” said the Queen: “all the ways about here belong to ME—but why did you come out here at all?” she added in a kinder tone. “Curtsey while you're thinking what to say, it saves time.”

Alice wondered a little at this, but she was too much in awe of the Queen to disbelieve it. “I'll try it when I go home,” she thought to herself, “the next time I'm a little late for dinner.”

“It's time for you to answer now,” the Queen said, looking at her watch: “open your mouth a LITTLE wider when you speak, and always say ‘your Majesty.’”

“I only wanted to see what the garden was like, your Majesty—”

“That's right,” said the Queen, patting her on the head, which Alice didn't like at all, “though, when you say ‘garden,’—I'VE seen gardens, compared with which this would be a wilderness.”
