“I do believe you’re right, Lu,” said Edmund. “I ’t think how I did before. But where is he?”
“With his shadow, of cour. ’t you e him?”
“Well, I almost thought I did—for a moment. It’s such a rum light.”
“Get on, King Edmund, get on,” came Trumpkin’s voice from behind and above, and then, farther behind and still nearly at the top, Peter’s voice saying, “Oh, buck up, Susan. Give me your hand. Why, a baby could get down here. And do stop grousing.”

Lucy was nearly blowhe tail and hind legs of Aslan disappeared over the top：but with one last effort she scrambled after him and came out, rather shaky-legged and breathless, on the hill they had been trying to reach ever sihey left Glasswater. The lole slope （heather and grass and a few very big rocks that shone white in the moonlight） stretched up to where it vanished in a glimmer of trees about half a mile away. She k. It was the hill of the Stoable.
