When it was almost dark Tirian heard a light pitter-patter of feet and saw some small creatures ing toward him.The three on the left were Mice, and there was a Rabbit in the middle：on the right were two Moles.Both the were carrying little bags on their backs which gave them a curious look in the dark so that at first he wondered what kind of beasts they were.Then, in a moment, they were all standing up on their hind legs, laying their cool paws on his knees and giving his knees snuffly animal kiss.（They could reach his knees bearnian Talkis of that sort are bigger than the dumb beasts of the same kind in England.）
“Lord King！Dear Lord King,”said their shrill voices,“we are so sorry for you.We daren’t untie you becau Aslan might be angry with us.But we’ve brought you your supper.”
At ohe first Mou climbed nimbly up till he erched on the rope that bound Tirian’s chest and was wrinkling his blunt no in front of Tirian’s face.Then the ou climbed up and hung on just below the first Mou.The other beasts stood on the ground and began handing things up.

“Drink, Sire, and then you’ll find you are able to eat,”said the topmost Mou, and Tirian found that a little wooden cup was beio his lips.It was only the size of an egg cup so that he had hardly tasted the wine in it before it was empty.But then the Mou pasd it down and the others refilled it and it asd up again and Tiriaied it a d time.In this way they went on till he had quite a good drink, which was all the better for ing in little dos, for that is more thirst-queng than one long draught.
