'No use, no use!'said the King, expressing doubt about catching the quick-moving creature. He compares her speed to that of a Bandersnatch, emphasizing her swiftness and the difficulty of catching her. Despite this, he shows fondness for her, calling her a 'dear good creature' and deciding to record her in his memorandum-book.

He even questions the spelling of "creature," showing his gentle curiosity and affection. The King’s lighthearted tone reveals his admiration and fondness for the creature, blending practicality with fondness as he prepares to note her characteristics in his records.
