However, I know my name now, she said.
That's some comfort.
Alice, Alice.
I won't forget it again.
And now which of these finger posts ought I to follow, I wonder?
It was not a very difficult question to answer, as there was only one road through the wood, and the two finger posts both pointed along it.
I'll settle it, Alice said to herself, when the road divides, and they point different ways.
But this did not seem likely to happen.
She went on and on a long way, but whenever the road divided, there would be sure to be two finger posts pointing the same way, one marked to Tweedledum's house, and the other to the house of Tweedledee.
I do believe, said Alice at last, that they live in the same house.
I wonder I never thought of that before, but I can't stay there long.
I'll just call and say how do you do and ask them the way out of the wood.

I suppose they've each got Tweedle round at the back of the collar, she said to herself.
They stood so still that she quite forgot they were alive, and she was just looking round to see if the word Tweedle was written at the back of each collar when she was startled by a voice coming from the one marked dumb.
