Alice in Wonderland, chapter II, part 1: Curiouser and curiouser (who am I?), sentence 10

She tells herself "You ought to be ashamed of yourself, a great girl like you", a joke because she really is great, meaning huge, and orders herself: "Stop this moment, I tell you!", but goes on crying all the same.

Who acts: Alice · What happens: tell, be, mean, order, stop, go on · To what, where: Alice, same · Speech: someone speaks here
