` The face is what one goes by , generally , ' Alice remarked in a thoughtful tone . ` That 's just what I complain of , ' said Humpty Dumpty . ` Your face is the same as everybody has -- the two eyes , so -- ' -LRB- marking their places in the air with this thumb -RRB- ` nose in the middle , mouth under . It 's always the same . Now if you had the two eyes on the same side of the nose , for instance -- or the mouth at the top -- that would be SOME help . ' ` It would n't look nice , ' Alice objected . But Humpty Dumpty only shut his eyes and said ` Wait till you 've tried . ' Alice waited a minute to see if he would speak again , but as he never opened his eyes or took any further notice of her , she said ` Good-bye ! ' once more , and , getting no answer to this , she quietly walked away : but she could n't help saying to herself as she went , ` Of all the unsatisfactory -- ' -LRB- she repeated this aloud , as it was a great comfort to have such a long word to say -RRB- ` of all the unsatisfactory people I EVER met -- ' She never finished the sentence , for at this moment a heavy crash shook the forest from end to end . CHAPTER VII . The Lion and the Unicorn The next moment soldiers came running through the wood , at first in twos and threes , then ten or twenty together , and at last in such crowds that they seemed to fill the whole forest . Alice got behind a tree , for fear of being run over , and watched them go by . She thought that in all her life she had never seen soldiers so uncertain on their feet : they were always tripping over something or other , and whenever one went down , several more always fell over him , so that the ground was soon covered with little heaps of men . Then came the horses . Having four feet , these managed rather better than the foot-soldiers : but even THEY stumbled now and then ; and it seemed to be a regular rule that , whenever a horse stumbled the rider fell off instantly . The confusion got worse every moment , and Alice was very glad to get out of the wood into an open place , where she found the White King seated on the ground , busily writing in his memorandum-book . ` I 've sent them all ! ' the King cried in a tone of delight , on seeing Alice . ` Did you happen to meet any soldiers , my dear , as you came through the wood ? ' ` Yes , I did , ' said Alice : ` several thousand , I should think . '
` Four thousand two hundred and seven , that 's the exact number , ' the King XXXXX , referring to his book . '
