He hid me from the Witch and showed me the way back. That‘s what it means by comforting the Queen’s enemies and fraternizing with Humans. We simply must try to rescue him.”
“A lot we could do！ “ said Edmund，”when we haven‘t evengot anything to eat！ ““Shut up.you！” said Peter， who was still very angry withEdmund. “What do you think， Susan？”
“I’ve a horrid feeling that Lu is right，” said Susan. “I don‘t want to go a step further and I wish we’d never come. But I think we must try to do something for Mr Whatever.his. name is.I mean the Faun.”
“That‘s what I feel too，” said Peter. “I’m worried about having no food with us. I‘d vote for going back and getting something from the larder， only there doesn’t seem to be any certainty of getting into this country again when once you‘ve got out of it. I think we’ll have to go on.”
“So do I，” said both the girls.
“If only we knew where the poor chap was imprisoned！” said Peter.
