The Calormene bowed and replied， in the pompous Calormene way：
“Most sapient Mouthpiece of Aslan， The Tisroc （may he live for ever） is wholly of one mind with your lordship in this judicious plan.”
“There！ You see！” said the Ape. “It’s all arranged. And all for your own good. We‘ll be able， with the money you earn， to make Narnia a country worth living in. There’ll be oranges and bananas pouring in.and roads and big cities and schools and offices and whips and muzzles and saddles and cages and kennels and prisons.oh， everything.”
“But we don‘t want all those things，” said an old Bear. “We want to be free. And we want to hear Aslan speak himself.”
“Now don’t you start arguing，” said the Ape， “for it‘s a hing I won’t stand. I‘m a Man： you’re only a fat， stupid ld Bear. What do you know about freedom？ You think eedom means doing what you like. Well， you‘re wrong. hat isn’t true freedom. True freedom means doing what I ll you.”
“H.n.n.h，” grunted the Bear and scratched its head； it ound this sort of thing hard to understand.
“Please， please，” said the high voice of a woolly lamb， who as so young that everyone was surprised he dared to speak t all.
“What is it now？” said the Ape. “Be quick.”
