　all　this　well；　king　caspian？鈥�

〃i　do　indeed；　sir；〃　said　caspian。　〃i　was　wishing　that　i　came　of　a　more　　honourable　lineage。鈥�

〃you　e　of　the　lord　adam　and　the　lady　eve；〃　said　aslan。　〃and　that　is　both　　honour　enough　to　erect　the　head　of　the　poorest　beggar；　and　shame　enough　to　bow　the　　shoulders　of　the　greatest　emperor　on　earth。　be　content。鈥�

caspian　bowed。

〃and　now；〃　said　aslan；　〃you　men　and　women　of　telmar；　will　you　go　back　to　　that　island　in　the　world　of　men　from　which　your　fathers　first　came？　it　is　no　bad　place。　　the　race　of　those　pirates　who　first　found　it　has　died　out；　and　it　is　without　　inhabitants。　there　are　good　wells　of　fresh　water；　and　fruitful　soil；　and　timber　for　building；　and　fish　　in　the　lagoons；　and　the　other　men　of　that　world　have　not　yet　discovered　it。　the　chasm　is　open　　for　your　return；　but　this　i　must　warn　you；　that　once　you　have　gone　through；　it　will　close　　behind　you　for　ever。　there　will　be　no　more　merce　between　the　worlds　by　that　door。鈥�

there　was　silence　for　a　moment。　then　a　burly；　decent　looking　fellow　among　　the　telmarine　soldiers　pushed　forward　and　said：　　〃well；　ill　take　the　offer。鈥�

〃it　is　well　chosen；〃　said　aslan。　〃and　because　you　have　spoken　first；　strong　　magic　is　upon　you。　your　future　in　that　world　shall　be　good。　e　forth。鈥�

the　man；　now　a　little　pale；　came　forward。　aslan　and　his　court　drew　aside；　　leaving　him　free　access　to　the　empty　doorway　of　the　stakes。

〃go　through　it；　my　son；〃　said　aslan；　bending　towards　him　and　touching　the　　mans　nose　with　his　own。　as　soon　as　the　lions　breath　came　about　him；　a　new　look　came　　into　the　mans　eyes　…　startled；　but　not　unhappy　…　as　if　he　were　trying　to　remember　　something。　then　he　squared　his　shoulders　and　walked　into　the　door。

everyones　eyes　were　fixed　on　him。　they　saw　the　three　pieces　of　wood；　and　　through　them　the　trees　and　grass　and　sky　of　narnia。　they　saw　the　man　between　the　　doorposts：　then；　in　one　second；　he　had　vanished　utterly。

from　the　other　end　of　the　glade　the　remaining　telmarines　set　up　a　wailing。　　〃ugh！　whats　happened　to　him？　do　you　mean　to　murder　us？　we　wont　go　that　way。〃　and　then　　one　of　the　clever　telmarines　said：　　〃we　dont　see　any　other　world　through　those　sticks。　if　you　want　us　to　　believe　in　it；　why　doesnt　one　of　you　go？　all　your　own　friends　are　keeping　well　away　from　the　　sticks。鈥�

instantly　reepicheep　stood　forward　and　bowed。　〃if　my　example　can　be　of　any　　service；　aslan；〃　he　said；　〃i　will　take　eleven　mice　through　that　arch　at　your　bidding　　without　a　moments　delay。鈥�

〃nay；　little　one；〃　said　aslan；　laying　his　velvety　paw　ever　so　lightly　on　　reepicheeps　head。

〃they　would　do　dreadful　things　to　you　in　that　world。　they　would　show　you　at　　fairs。　it　is　others　who　must　lead。鈥�

〃e　on；〃　said　peter　suddenly　to　edmund　and　lucy。　〃our　times　up。鈥�

〃what　do　you　mean？〃　said　edmund。

〃this　way；〃　said　susan；　who　seemed　to　know　all　about　it。　〃back　into　the　　trees。　weve　got　to　change。鈥�

〃change　what？〃　asked　lucy。

〃our　clothes；　of　course；〃　said　susan。　〃nice　fools　wed　look　on　the　platform　　of　an　english　station　in　these。鈥�

〃but　our　other　things　are　at　caspians　castle；〃　said　edmund。

〃no；　theyre　not；〃　said　peter；　still　leading　the　way　into　the　thickest　　wood。　〃theyre　all　here。　they　were　brought　down　in　bundles　this　morning。　its　all　arranged。鈥�

〃was　that　what　aslan　was　talking　to　you　and　susan　about　this　morning？〃　　asked　lucy。

〃yes　…　that　and　other　things；〃　said　peter；　his　face　very　solemn。　〃i　cant　　tell　it　to　you　all。

there　were　things　he　wanted　to　say　to　su　and　me　because　were　not　ing　　back　to　narnia。鈥�

〃never？〃　cried　edmund　and　lucy　in　dismay。

〃oh；　you　two　are；〃　answered　peter。　〃at　least；　from　what　he　said；　im　pretty　　sure　he　means　you　to　get　back　some　day。　but　not　su　and　me。　he　says　were　getting　too　　old。鈥�

〃oh；　peter；〃　said　lucy。　〃what　awful　bad　luck。　can　you　bear　it？鈥�

〃well；　i　think　i　can；〃　said　peter。　〃its　all　rather　different　from　what　i　　thought。　youll　understand　when　it　es　to　your　last　time。　but；　quick；　here　are　our　　things。鈥�

it　was　odd；　and　not　very　nice；　to　take　off　their　royal　clothes　and　to　e　　back　in　their　school　things　（not　very　fresh　now）　into　that　great　assembly。　one　or　two　of　　the　nastier　telmarines　jeered。　but　the　other　creatures　all　cheered　and　rose　up　in　　honour　of　peter　the　high　king；　and　queen　susan　of　the　horn；　and　king　edmund；　and　queen　lucy。　　there　were　affectionate　and　（on　lucys　part）　tearful　farewells　with　all　their　old　　friends　…　animal　kisses；　and　hugs　from　bulgy　bears；　and　hands　wrung　by　trumpkin；　and　a　last　　tickly；　whiskerish　embrace　with　trufflehunter。　and　of　course　caspian　offered　the　　horn　back　to　susan　and　of　course　susan　told　him　to　keep　it。　and　then；　wonderfully　and　　terribly；　it　was　farewell　to　aslan　himself；　and　peter　took　his　place　with　susans　hands　on　　his　shoulders　and　edmunds　on　hers　and　lucys　on　his　and　the　first　of　the　telmarines　on　　lucys；　and　so　in　a　long　line　they　moved　forward　to　the　door。　after　that　came　a　moment　　which　is　hard　to　describe；　for　the　children　seemed　to　be　seeing　three　things　at　once。　one　　was　the　mouth　of　a　cave　opening　into　the　glaring　green　and　blue　of　an　island　in　the　　pacific；　where　all　the　telmarines　would　find　themselves　the　moment　they　were　through　the　door。　the　　second　was　a　glade　in　narnia；　the　faces　of　dwarfs　and　beasts；　the　deep　eyes　of　　aslan；　and　the　white　patches　on　the　badgers　cheeks。　but　the　third　（which　rapidly　　swallowed　up　the　　

other　two）　was　the　grey；　gravelly　surface　of　a　platform　in　a　country　　station；　and　a　seat　with　luggage　round　it；　where　they　were　all　sitting　as　if　they　had　never　　moved　from　it　…　a　little　flat　and　dreary　for　a　moment　after　all　they；　had　been　through；　but　　also；　unexpectedly；　nice　in　its　own　way；　what　with　the　familiar　railway　smell　and　　the　english　sky　and　the　summer　term　before　them。

〃well！〃　said　peter。　〃we　have　had　a　time。鈥�

〃bother！〃　said　edmund。　〃ive　left　my　new　torch　in　narnia。鈥�
