As Alice was walking down the road through the forest, she saw, sitting high up on a fence, a strange-looking creature rather like an egg.
'How curious you look,' she called up to the creature. 'What kind of person are you?' 'My name', said the egg, 'is Humpty Dumpty. And what, pray, is yours?'
'Alice,' said Alice. 'And why do you sit so high up on that fence?'
