letter, nearly as large as himself, and this he handed over to
the other, saying, in a solemn tone, `For the Duchess.  An
invitation from the Queen to play croquet.'  The Frog-Footman
repeated, in the same solemn tone, only changing the order of the
words a little, `From the Queen.  An invitation for the Duchess
to play croquet.'

  Then they both bowed low, and their curls got entangled
together.

## Changelog since v1.7.10

### Other notable changes

* Bugfix: master startup script on GCP no longer fails randomly due to concurrent iptables invocations. ([#55945](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/55945), [@x13n](https://github.com/x13n))

     * {@code
     * String username = f.getPrincipal().getName();
     * }
     * The {@code Principal} object returned will never be {@code null}
     * however the username can be {@code null} indication anonymous
     * credentials were used (e.g. some IPC$ services).
