″‘Why don’t you get up and play with us?’ one of them asked.
‘I don’t feel like it,’ said the Rabbit, for he didn’t want to explain that he had no clockwork.
‘Ho!’ said the furry rabbit. ‘It’s as easy as anything,’ And he gave a big hop sideways and stood on his hind legs.
‘I don’t believe you can!’ he said.
‘I can!’ said the little Rabbit. ‘I can jump higher than anything!’ He meant when the Boy threw him, but of course he didn’t want to say so.”
