  In what way did home lie? They had gone now to the right hand, now to the left hand, now to the north, now to the south. How to find the way by which they had come first, they could not tell. They could but walk on, and on, and on; and their poor little weak legs felt many a pain. "We can but go on till we die, Bow-Wow," said Mew-Mew. They went on, and never knew the least bit in the world where they were going. Sometimes when the sun rose, they had not the heart to get up at all. They would lie still, with their eyes Sleeping next to each other When they had gone long with no food, they could not sleep, but would creep close to each other, or would sit and look at each other in a kind of fear. |
