Toad
sat
up
slowly
and
dried
his
eyes
.
Secrets
had
an
immense
attraction
for
him
,
because
he
never
could
keep
one
,
and
he
enjoyed
the
sort
of
unhallowed
thrill
he
experienced
when
he
went
and
told
another
animal
,
after
having
faithfully
promised
not
to
.
"
There
--
is
--
an
--
underground
--
passage
,
"
said
the
Badger
,
impressively
,
"
that
leads
from
the
river-bank
,
quite
near
here
,
right
up
into
the
middle
of
Toad
Hall
.

"
O
,
nonsense
!
Badger
,
"
said
Toad
,
rather
airily
.
"
You
've
been
listening
to
some
of
the
yarns
they
spin
in
the
public-houses
about
here
.
I
know
every
inch
of
Toad
Hall
,
inside
and
out
.
Nothing
of
the
sort
,
I
do
assure
you
!
"
"
My
young
friend
,
"
said
the
Badger
,
with
great
severity
,
"
your
father
,
who
was
a
worthy
animal
--
a
lot
worthier
than
some
others
I
know
--
was
a
particular
friend
of
mine
,
and
told
me
a
great
deal
he
would
n't
have
dreamt
of
telling
you
.
He
discovered
that
passage
--
he
did
n't
make
it
,
of
course
;
that
was
done
hundreds
of
years
before
he
ever
came
to
live
there
--
and
he
repaired
it
and
cleaned
it
out
,
because
he
thought
it
might
come
in
useful
some
day
,
in
case
of
trouble
or
danger
;
and
he
showed
it
to
me
.
'
Do
n't
let
my
son
know
about
it
,
'
he
said
.
'
He
's
a
good
boy
,
but
very
light
and
volatile
in
character
,
and
simply
can
not
hold
his
tongue
.
If
he
's
ever
in
a
real
fix
,
and
it
would
be
of
use
to
him
,
you
may
tell
him
about
the
secret
passage
;
but
not
before
.
'
"
The
other
animals
looked
hard
at
Toad
to
see
how
he
would
take
it
.
Toad
was
inclined
to
be
sulky
at
first
;
but
he
brightened
up
immediately
,
like
the
good
fellow
he
was
.
"
Well
,
well
,
"
he
said
;
"
perhaps
I
am
a
bit
of
a
talker
.
A
popular
fellow
such
as
I
am
--
my
friends
get
round
me
--
we
chaff
,
we
sparkle
,
we
tell
witty
stories
--
and
somehow
my
tongue
gets
wagging
.
I
have
the
gift
of
conversation
.
I
've
been
told
I
ought
to
have
a
salon
,
whatever
that
may
be
.
Never
mind
.

Go
on
,
Badger
.
How
's
this
passage
of
yours
going
to
help
us
?
"
"
I
've
found
out
a
thing
or
two
lately
,
"
continued
the
Badger
.
"
I
got
Otter
to
disguise
himself
as
a
sweep
and
call
at
the
back-door
with
brushes
over
his
shoulder
,
asking
for
a
job
.
There
's
going
to
be
a
big
banquet
to-morrow
night
.
It
's
somebody
's
birthday
--
the
Chief
Weasel
's
,
I
believe
--
and
all
the
weasels
will
be
gathered
together
in
the
dining-hall
,
eating
and
drinking
and
laughing
and
carrying
on
,
suspecting
nothing
.
No
guns
,
no
swords
,
no
sticks
,
no
arms
of
any
sort
whatever
!
"
"
But
the
sentinels
will
be
posted
as
usual
,
"
remarked
the
Rat
.
