Prince Rilian shivered as she spoke to him. And no wo is not easy to throw off in half an hour an entment which has made one a slave for ten years. Then, speaking with a great effort, he said: “Madam, there will be no more need of that chair. And you, who have told me a huimes how deeply you pitied me for the sorceries by which I was bound, will doubtless hear with joy that they are now ended for ever. There was, it ems, some small error in your Ladyship’s way of treating them. The, my true friends, have delivered me. I am now in my right mind, and there are two things I will say to you. First — as for your Ladyship’s design of putti the head of an army of Earthmen so that I may break out into the Overworld and there, by main force, make mylf king over some nation that never did me wrong — murdering their natural lords and holding their throne as a bloody and fn tyrant — now that I know mylf, I do utterly abhor and renou as plain villainy. And d:I am the King’s son of Narnia, Rilian, the only child of Caspiah of that name, whom some call Caspian the Seafarer. Therefore, Madam, it is my purpo, as it is also my duty, to depart suddenly from yhness’s court into my own try. Plea it you to grant me and my friends safe dud a guide through your dark realm.”
