The Witch shook her head. “I see，” she said， “that we should do no better with your lion， as you call it， than we did with your sun. You have seen lamps， and so you imagined a bigger and better lamp and called it the sun. You’ve seen cats， and now you want a bigger and better cat， and it‘s to be called a lion. Well， ’tis a pretty make.believe， though， to say truth， it would suit you all better if you were younger. And look how you can put nothing into your make. believe without copying it from the real world， this world of mine， which is the only world. But even you children are too old for such play. As for you， my lord Prince， that art a man full grown， fie upon you！ Are you not ashamed of such toys？ Come， all of you. Put away these childish tricks. I have work for you all in the real world. There is no Narnia， no Overworld， no sky， no sun， no Aslan. And now， to bed all. And let us begin a wiser life tomorrow. But， first， to bed； to sleep； deep sleep， soft pillows， sleep without foolish dreams.”
