她的刺猬正同另一只刺猬打架，爱丽丝认为这真是用一只刺猬球去打中另一个刺猬球的好机会，可是她的红鹤却跑掉了，爱丽丝看到它正在花园的那边，在徒劳地向树上飞。

The hedgehog was engaged in a fight with another hedgehog, which seemed to Alice an excellent opportunity for croqueting one of them with the other: the only difficulty was, that her flamingo was gone across to the other side of the garden, where Alice could see it trying in a helpless sort of way to fly up into a tree.

By the time she had caught the flamingo and brought it back, the fight was over, and both the hedgehogs were out of sight: `but it doesn't matter much,' thought Alice, `as all the arches are gone from this side of the ground.' So she tucked it away under her arm, that it might not escape again, and went back for a little more conversation with her friend.

When she got back to the Cheshire Cat, she was surprised to find quite a large crowd collected round it: there was a dispute going on between the executioner, the King, and the Queen, who were all talking at once, while all the rest were quite silent, and looked very uncomfortable.

The moment Alice appeared, she was appealed to by all three to settle the question, and they repeated their arguments to her, though, as they all spoke at once, she found it very hard indeed to make out exactly what they said.

她的刺猬正同另一只刺猬打架，爱丽丝认为这真是用一只刺猬球去打中另一个刺猬球的好机会，可是她的红鹤却跑掉了，爱丽丝看到它正在花园的那边，在徒劳地向树上飞。

等她捉住红鹤回来，正在打架的两只刺猬都跑得无影无踪了。爱丽丝想：“这没多大关系，因为这里的球门都跑掉了。”为了不让红鹤再逃跑，爱丽丝把它夹在胳膊下，又跑回去想同她的朋友多谈一会儿。

爱丽丝走回柴郡猫那儿时，惊奇地看到一大群人围着它，刽子手、国王、王后正在激烈地辩论。他们同时说话，而旁边的人都静悄悄地呆着，看上去十分不安。

爱丽丝刚到，这三个人就立即让她作裁判，他们争先恐后地同时向她重复自己的理由，爱丽丝很难听清楚他们说的是什么。
