Adventure in NARNIA (71)

" She won't turn him into stone too ? " said Edmund.

" 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 bare 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.

" Why, Daughter of Eve, that's what I brought you here for. I'm to lead you where you shall meet him, " said Mr Beaver.

" Is ー is he a man ? " asked Lucy.
