There was a table set out under a tree in front of the house, and the March Hare and the Hatter were having tea at it: a Dormouse was sitting between them, fast asleep, and the other two were using it as a cushion, resting their elbows on it, and talking over its head.
Vi prendevano il tè la Lepre di Marzo e il Cappellaio. Un Ghiro profondamente addormentato stava fra di loro, ed essi se ne servivano come se fosse stato un guanciale, poggiando su di lui i gomiti, e discorrendogli sulla testa.
