King Of Hearts (Alice's Adventures In Wonderland)
The King of Hearts is a character from the 1865 book ''Alice's Adventures in Wonderland'' by Lewis Carroll. He is the husband of the Queen of Hearts. ''Alice's Adventures in Wonderland'' When compared to the Queen of Hearts, the King of Hearts appears to be the moderate part of the Wonderland government.

The King also quietly pardons many of the subjects the Queen has ordered to be beheaded when the Queen is not looking. This guarantees few people are actually guillotined. Nevertheless, when the Queen plays a game of croquet in the story, the only players who remain at the end are himself, the Queen, and Alice. At the Knave of Hearts' trial, however, where he acts as judge, he is revealed to be quite juvenile, with such lines as, "don't be nervous or I ...
