the paragraph from F. K. Lane's last manuscript.
Dear Jerry,
Sorry I wasn't more precise - - this is what I was interested to know
about: which paragraph is this and who is F. K. Lane?

Dear List,
In further pursuit of niktoBotkin, I thought I would try to see how
Nabokov
translated the March Hare's claim that he could see nobody coming down
the
road. I haven't succeeded yet, but while googling around I did come up
with
this charming bit of repartee from the tea party scene:
`Take some more tea,' the March Hare said to Alice, very earnestly.
`I've had nothing yet,' Alice replied in an offended tone, `so I can't
take
more.'
`You mean you can't take less,' said the Hatter: `it's very easy to
take
more than nothing.'
`Nobody asked your opinion,' said Alice.
`Who's making personal remarks now?' the Hatter asked triumphantly.
with great appreciation for our editress in residence,
Carolyn
