CHAPTER 2

WHAT LUCY FOUND THERE（2）

柜中天地（2）

    "Thank you very much, Mr Tumnus," said Lucy. "But I was wondering whether I ought to be getting back."  

    "It's only just round the corner," said the Faun, "and there'll be a roaring fire --- and toast --- and sardines(沙丁鱼） --- and cake."  

   "Well, it's very kind of you," said Lucy. "But I shan't be able to stay long."  

    "If you will take my arm, Daughter of Eve," said Mr Tumnus, "I shall be able to hold the umbrella over both of us. That's the way. Now --- off we go."  

    And so Lucy found herself walking through the wood arm in arm  with this strange creature（生物） as if they had known one another all their lives.  

    They had not gone far before they came to a place where the ground became rough and there were rocks all about and little hills up and little hills down. At the bottom of one small valley Mr Tumnus turned suddenly aside as if he were going to walk straight into an unusually large rock, but at the last moment Lucy found he was leading her into the entrance（入口） of a cave. As soon as they were inside she found herself blinking in the light of a wood fire. Then Mr Tumnus stooped（弯腰） and took a flaming（熊熊燃烧的） piece of wood out of the fire with a neat little pair of tongs, and lit（light 过去式） a lamp. "Now we shan't be long," he said, and immediately（立即） put a kettle（茶壶） on.  

    Lucy thought she had never been in a nicer place. It was a little, dry, clean cave of reddish stone with a carpet on the floor and two little chairs ("one for me and one for a friend," said Mr Tumnus) and a table and a dresser and a mantelpiece（mantel+piece n.壁炉架） over the fire and above that a picture of an old Faun with a grey beard. In one corner there was a door which Lucy thought must lead to Mr Tumnus's bedroom, and on one wall was a shelf full of books. Lucy looked at these while he was setting out the tea things（茶具）. They had titles like The Life and Letters of Silenus（森林之神） or Nymphs（住在山林、水泽中的仙女或精灵） and Their Ways or Men, Monks and Gamekeepers（猎场守护人）; a Study in Popular Legend or Is Man a Myth（神话）?
