Chapter V

Advice from a Caterpillar


The Caterpillar and Alice looked at each other for some time in silence: at last the Caterpillar took the hookah out of its mouth, and addressed her in a sleepy voice.

'Who are you?' said the Caterpillar.

Alice replied, rather shyly, 'I–I hardly know, just at present-at least I know who I was when I got up this morning, but I think I changed several times.'

'What do you mean by that?' said the Caterpillar sternly. 'Explain!'

'I can't, I'm afraid,' said Alice very politely. 'I —…'

'You!' said the Caterpillar contemptuously. 'Who are YOU?'

It brought them back again to the beginning of the conversation.

Alice thought that the Caterpillar was in a very unpleasant state of mind, and she turned away.

'Come back!' the Caterpillar demanded. 'I want to tell you something important!'

Alice turned and came back again.

'Keep your temper,' said the Caterpillar.

'Is that all?' asked Alice.

'No,' said the Caterpillar.

Alice was waiting.

'So you think you changed, do you?' said the Caterpillar.
