Continuity: she again entered, once more the long, low, lamp-lit hall, and faced the nearby small glass table. Now, this time she knew that she would succeed due to the mushroom in her pockets. she first took the tiny golden key, next she unlocked the low door that led into the gorgeous garden. Then she nibbled at the mushroom til she shrunk to the size to fit the low door. she walked along the short passage... and finally... she came, at last, into the beautiful garden, among the bright flowers.
CHAPTER 8; The Queen’s game
Alice saw a large towering tree with wonderful white roses. Oddly, three CARDS, with black clover shape to indicate gardeners, were by it, hurriedly painting them RED. the cards were very thin and oblong and flat, with their "hands and feet at the corners." she heard card two protest, “Five! Don’t splash paint on me like that.” it replied, “Seven bumped my elbow.” Seven cynically complained [note: sound and eye pattern: Seven cynically complained], “Always blame others!” five told Alice, “yesterday, I heard the Queen say 7 deserved death!” the one who she heard first asked, “What for?”7 answered, “2, that’s not your business!”5 spoke on, “it was for bringing tulip roots instead of onions.” Seven threw down its brush angrily and began “of all the unjust things...” then stopped and saw Alice watching them. 2+5 looked round. seeing Alice 2+5 and 7, all 3 bowed low.
Alice asked a little timidly, “tell me why you are painting the roses?” 5+7 remained silent and looked at 2. 2 explained in a low voice, while they rushed to resume painting, “this tree, Miss, ought to grow red roses, but, this morning, some spade dug and planted the seed for a white one, by mistake. we clovers care for the flowers so if the Queen saw them white, she would decree to cut our heads off. +They sang as they painted: [credit disney, editors note: one of my favorite rhymes and melodies] "We're painting roses red,
painting the roses red,
we dare not stop,
nor waste a drop,
so, the paint we spread,
oh, we go ahead,
painting roses red," they painted in rythm and continued, "bum, bum, bum, bum, We're painting roses red,
and many tears we shed...
TWO: kuz we all know,
chorus 5+7: they will not grow
ACE: in fact they'll soon be dead
all 9 numbers: yet, we go ahead,
painting roses red." Alice, who already knew the answer, joined the rhyme speaking, "pardon me,
mister three,
which thought, do you all dread?
why must you paint them red?"
3 rhyming spoke: oh miss,
fact is,
we all tremble and shake,
they are white by mistake." the painters began singing again:
2: the red queen likes 'em red,
5: if she saw white insted,
7: she'd make a fuss...
all ten gardeners: and each of us,
would risk losing his head,
2: this is the thought we dread,
5+7: so we, must paint them red.
Alice: painting the roses red
2,5,7: we're painting roses red
all nine numbers: don't tell the queen...
ace: what you have seen...
two: nor say the things we said,
5+7 joined 2: we're painting roses red
Alice: painting the roses red!" they paused and the painters concluded:
2: not pink,
5: not green
7: nor aquamarine
all eleven sang the finale' together: painting the roses red!"
