Who for such dainties would not stoop (кто над такими лакомствами не склонится; to stoop — сутулиться; наклоняться, нагибаться)?

'Oh, a song, please, if the Mock Turtle would be so kind,' Alice replied, so eagerly that the Gryphon said, in a rather offended tone, 'Hm! No accounting for tastes! Sing her "Turtle Soup," will you, old fellow?'

The Mock Turtle sighed deeply, and began, in a voice sometimes choked with sobs, to sing this:—

'Beautiful Soup, so rich and green,

Waiting in a hot tureen!

'Chorus again (и снова припев; chorus — хор; припев, рефрен)!' cried the Gryphon, and the Mock Turtle had just begun to repeat it (закричал Грифон, и как раз когда Псевдо-Черепаха начал повторять его), when a cry of 'The trial's beginning!' was heard in the distance (крик: "Суд начинается!" послышался вдалеке).

'Come on (пойдем)!' cried the Gryphon, and, taking Alice by the hand, it hurried off (вскричал Грифон и, схватив Алису за руку, поспешил прочь), without waiting for the end of the song (не дожидаясь окончания песни).

'What trial is it (а чей это суд = кого судят)?' Alice panted as she ran (задыхаясь спросила Алиса на бегу; to pant — часто и тяжело дышать, задыхаться); but the Gryphon only answered 'Come on!' and ran the faster (но Грифон только и ответил: "Бежим!" и побежал еще быстрее), while more and more faintly came, carried on the breeze that followed them, the melancholy words (пока все слабее и слабее доносились, подхваченные легким ветерком, дувшим им в спины, печальные слова; to follow — следовать, идти /за кем-либо, чем-либо/):—

'Soo—oop of the e—e—evening,

Beautiful, beautiful Soup (вечерний суп, прекрасный суп)!'

CHAPTER XI

Who Stole the Tarts

(Кто украл пирожные; to steal — воровать, красть)?

The King and Queen of Hearts were seated on their throne when they arrived (Червонные Король и Королева сидели на троне, когда они прибыли), with a great crowd assembled about them—all sorts of little birds and beasts (вокруг них собралась огромная толпа — всякого рода маленькие птички и зверюшки), as well as the whole pack of cards (так же как и вся колода карт): the Knave was standing before them, in chains, with a soldier on each side to guard him (Валет стоял перед ними, в цепях, и с каждой стороны /от Валета/ стояло по солдату, чтобы караулить его; chain — цепь, цепочка; оковы, узы, цепи; in chains — в оковах; to guard — охранять, сторожить; караулить); and near the King was the White Rabbit, with a trumpet in one hand, and a scroll of parchment in the other (а рядом с Королем стоял Белый Кролик — с трубой в одной руке и свитком пергамента в другой).
