said in a low voice，“Is that you，Edmund ？”
“Yes．Who are you ？”said he．
“Don’t you know me ？”said the other．“It’s me—Eustace．”
“By jove，”said Edmund，“so it is．My dear chap—”

“Hello ！”said Edmund，steadying him．“What’s up ？ Are you ill ？”
Eustace was silent for so long that Edmund thought he was fainting；but at last he said，“It’s been ghastly．You don’t know... but it’s all right now．Could we go and talk somewhere ？ I don’t want to meet the others just yet．”
“Yes，rather，anywhere you like，”said Edmund．“We can go and sit on the rocks over there．I say，I am glad to see you— er—looking yourself again．You must have had a pretty beastly time．”
