The Pig Baby

          back to Alice Page

"The door led right into a large kitchen, which was full of smoke from one end to the other: the Duchess was sitting on a three-legged stool in the middle, nursing a baby: the cook was leaning over the fire, stirring a large cauldron which seemed to be full of soup.

"There's certainly too much pepper in that soup!" Alice said to herself, as well as she could for sneezing."

Flickering "Flame" bulbs burn in the oven. A dim light comes out from behind the Duchess.
