"Lord love you, Son of Adam, what a simple thing to say!" answered Mr Beaver with a
great laugh. "Turn him into stone? If she can stand on her two feet and look him in the
face it'll be the most she can do and more than I expect of her. No, no. He'll put all to
rights as it says in an old rhyme in these parts:
Wrong will be right, when Aslan comes in sight,
At the sound of his roar, sorrows will be no more,
When he bares his teeth, winter meets its death,
And when he shakes his mane, we shall have spring again.
You'll understand when you see him."
"But shall we see him?" asked Susan.

"How perfectly dreadful!" said Susan as they at last came back in despair. "Oh, how I
wish we'd never come."
"What on earth are we to do, Mr Beaver?" said Peter.
"Do?" said Mr Beaver, who was already putting on his snow-boots, "do? We must be off
at once. We haven't a moment to spare!"
"We'd better divide into four search parties," said Peter, "and all go in different
directions. Whoever finds him must come back here at once and-"
"Search parties, Son of Adam?" said Mr Beaver; "what for?"
"Why, to look for Edmund, of course!"
"There's no point in looking for him," said Mr Beaver.

"Has he been in this country before?" asked Mr Beaver. "Has he ever been here alone?"
"Yes," said Lucy, almost in a whisper. "I'm afraid he has."
"And did he tell you what he'd done or who he'd met?"
"Well, no, he didn't," said Lucy.
"Then mark my words," said Mr Beaver, "he has already met the White Witch and joined
her side, and been told where she lives. I didn't like to mention it before (he being your
brother and all) but the moment I set eyes on that brother of yours I said to myself
`Treacherous'. He had the look of one who has been with the Witch and eaten her food.
You can always tell them if you've lived long in Narnia; something about their eyes."
"All the same," said Peter in a rather choking sort of voice, "we'll still have to go and

"Oh, can no one help us?" wailed Lucy.
"Only Aslan," said Mr Beaver, "we must go on and meet him. That's our only chance
now."
"It seems to me, my dears," said Mrs Beaver, "that it is very important to know just when
he slipped away. How much he can tell her depends on how much he heard. For instance,
had we started talking of Aslan before he left? If not, then we may do very well, for she
won't know that Aslan has come to Narnia, or that we are meeting him, and will be quite
off her guard as far as that is concerned."
"I don't remember his being here when we were talking about Aslan -" began Peter, but
Lucy interrupted him.

The first thing he realized when he got outside and found the snow falling all round him,
was that he had left his coat behind in the Beavers' house. And of course there was no
chance of going back to get it now. The next thing he realized was that the daylight was
almost gone, for it had been nearly three o'clock when they sat down to dinner and the
winter days were short. He hadn't reckoned on this; but he had to make the best of it. So
he turned up his collar and shuffled across the top of the dam (luckily it wasn't so slippery
since the snow had fallen) to the far side of the river.
It was pretty bad when he reached the far side. It was growing darker every minute and
what with that and the snowflakes swirling all round him he could hardly see three feet
ahead. And then too there was no road. He kept slipping into deep drifts of snow, and

away and the moon came out. It was a full moon and, shining on all that snow, it made
everything almost as bright as day - only the shadows were rather confusing.
He would never have found his way if the moon hadn't come out by the time he got to the
other river you remember he had seen (when they first arrived at the Beavers') a smaller
river flowing into the great one lower down. He now reached this and turned to follow it
up. But the little valley down which it came was much steeper and rockier than the one he
had just left and much overgrown with bushes, so that he could not have managed it at all
in the dark. Even as it was, he got wet through for he had to stoop under branches and
great loads of snow came sliding off on to his back. And every time this happened he
thought more and more how he hated Peter - just as if all this had been Peter's fault.

Edmund crept up to the arch and looked inside into the courtyard, and there he saw a
sight that nearly made his heart stop beating. Just inside the gate, with the moonlight
shining on it, stood an enormous lion crouched as if it was ready to spring. And Edmund
stood in the shadow of the arch, afraid to go on and afraid to go back, with his knees
knocking together. He stood there so long that his teeth would have been chattering with
cold even if they had not been chattering with fear. How long this really lasted I don't
know, but it seemed to Edmund to last for hours.
Then at last he began to wonder why the lion was standing so still - for it hadn't moved
one inch since he first set eyes on it. Edmund now ventured a little nearer, still keeping in
the shadow of the arch as much as he could. He now saw from the way the lion was

He now saw that there was a dim light showing from a doorway on the far side of the
courtyard. He went to it; there was a flight of stone steps going up to an open door.
Edmund went up them. Across the threshold lay a great wolf.
"It's all right, it's all right," he kept saying to himself; "it's only a stone wolf. It can't hurt
me", and he raised his leg to step over it. Instantly the huge creature rose, with all the hair
bristling along its back, opened a great, red mouth and said in a growling voice:
"Who's there? Who's there? Stand still, stranger, and tell me who you are."
"If you please, sir," said Edmund, trembling so that he could hardly speak, "my name is
Edmund, and I'm the Son of Adam that Her Majesty met in the wood the other day and
I've come to bring her the news that my brother and sisters are now in Narnia - quite

"I'm come, your Majesty," said Edmund, rushing eagerly forward.
"How dare you come alone?" said the Witch in a terrible voice. "Did I not tell you to
bring the others with you?"
"Please, your Majesty," said Edmund, "I've done the best I can. I've brought them quite
close. They're in the little house on top of the dam just up the riverwith Mr and Mrs
Beaver."
A slow cruel smile came over the Witch's face.
"Is this all your news?" she asked.
"No, your Majesty," said Edmund, and proceeded to tell her all he had heard before
leaving the Beavers' house.

Now we must go back to Mr and Mrs Beaver and the three other children. As soon as Mr
Beaver said, "There's no time to lose," everyone began bundling themselves into coats,
except Mrs Beaver, who started picking up sacks and laying them on the table and said:
"Now, Mr Beaver, just reach down that ham. And here's a packet of tea, and there's sugar,
and some matches. And if someone will get two or three loaves out of the crock over
there in the corner."
"What are you doing, Mrs Beaver?" exclaimed Susan.
"Packing a load for each of us, dearie," said Mrs Beaver very coolly. "You didn't think
we'd set out on a journey with nothing to eat, did you?"
"But we haven't time!" said Susan, buttoning the collar of her coat. "She may be here any

"You've got to remember that, Mrs Beaver," said Susan. "As soon as she has looked in
here and finds we're gone she'll be off at top speed."
"That she will," said Mrs Beaver. "But we can't get there before her whatever we do, for
she'll be on a sledge and we'll be walking."
"Then - have we no hope?" said Susan.
"Now don't you get fussing, there's a dear," said Mrs Beaver, "but just get half a dozen
clean handkerchiefs out of the drawer. 'Course we've got a hope. We can't get there
before her but we can keep under cover and go by ways she won't expect and perhaps
we'll get through."
"That's true enough, Mrs Beaver," said her husband. "But it's time we were out of this."

"I've come at last," said he. "She has kept me out for a long time, but I have got in at last.
Aslan is on the move. The Witch's magic is weakening."
And Lucy felt running through her that deep shiver of gladness which you only get if you
are being solemn and still.
"And now," said Father Christmas, "for your presents. There is a new and better sewing
machine for you, Mrs Beaver. I will drop it in your house as, I pass."
"If you please, sir," said Mrs Beaver, making a curtsey. "It's locked up."
"Locks and bolts make no difference to me," said Father Christmas. "And as for you, Mr
Beaver, when you get home you will find your dam finished and mended and all the leaks
stopped and a new sluicegate fitted."

was of gold and it had a sheath and a sword belt and everything it needed, and it was just
the right size and weight for Peter to use. Peter was silent and solemn as he received these
gifts, for he felt they were a very serious kind of present.
"Susan, Eve's Daughter," said Father Christmas. "These are for you," and he handed her a
bow and a quiver full of arrows and a little ivory horn. "You must use the bow only in
great need," he said, "for I do not mean you to fight in the battle. It does not easily miss.
And when you put this horn to your lips; and blow it, then, wherever you are, I think help
of some kind will come to you."
Last of all he said, "Lucy, Eve's Daughter," and Lucy came forward. He gave her a little
bottle of what looked like glass (but people said afterwards that it was made of diamond)

Peter had just drawn his sword out of its sheath and was showing it to Mr Beaver, when
Mrs Beaver said:
"Now then, now then! Don't stand talking there till the tea's got cold. Just like men. Come
and help to carry the tray down and we'll have breakfast. What a mercy I thought of
bringing the bread-knife."
So down the steep bank they went and back to the cave, and Mr Beaver cut some of the
bread and ham into sandwiches and Mrs Beaver poured out the tea and everyone enjoyed
themselves. But long before they had finished enjoying themselves Mr Beaver said,
"Time to be moving on now."
