The Mock Turtle went on . ` We had the best of educations -- in fact , we went to school every day -- ' ` I 'VE been to a day-school , too , ' said Alice ; ` you need n't be so proud as all that . ' ` With extras ? ' asked the Mock Turtle a little anxiously . ` Yes , ' said Alice , ` we learned French and music . ' ` And washing ? ' said the Mock Turtle . ` Certainly not ! ' said Alice indignantly . ` Ah ! then yours was n't a really good school , ' said the Mock Turtle in a tone of great relief . ` Now at OURS they had at the end of the bill , `` French , music , AND WASHING -- extra . '' ' ` You could n't have wanted it much , ' said Alice ; ` living at the bottom of the sea . ' ' I could n't afford to learn it . ' said the Mock Turtle with a sigh . ' I only took the regular course . ' ` What was that ? ' inquired Alice .
` Reeling and Writhing , of XXXXX , to begin with , ' the Mock Turtle replied ; ` and then the different branches of Arithmetic -- Ambition , Distraction , Uglification , and Derision . ' '
