‘Top-off! Half-gone! They are such curious names; they set me thinking.’
‘You sit at home in your dark grey velvet coat,’ said the Cat, ‘getting your head full of fancies. ”

“ The good little Mouse was quite ready to oblige, and the Cat stole away behind the city walls to the church, and ate half of the pot of fat. ‘Nothing tastes better,’ she said, ‘than what one eats by oneself’ ”
