'I thought you said I wasn't to be alarmed.' 'No more you are,' said Mr.Noah shortly; 'of course you're in danger.
But there's me.

And there's the ark.

What more do you want ?' 'Nothing,' Lucy answered in a very small voice, and the two made their way to a raised platform overlooking the long inclined road which led up to the tower on which the ark had been built.

A long procession toiled slowly up it of animals in pairs, urged and goaded by the M.A.'s under the orders of the Lord High Islander.
The wild wind blew the flames of the torches out like golden streamers, and the sound of the waves was like thunder on the shore.
Down below other M.A.'s were busy carrying bales tied up in seaweed.
Seen from above the busy figures looked like ants when you kick into an ant-hill and the little ant people run this way and that way and every way about their little ant businesses.
The Lord High Islander came in pale and serious, with all the calm competence of Napoleon at a crisis.
'Sorry to have to worry you, sir,' he said to Mr.Noah, 'but of course your experience is invaluable just now.

I can't remember what bears eat.
Is it hay or meat ?' 'It's buns,' said Lucy.
