"If we could somehow cut our landing gear free," began Jeter, "but " "But it's too late, Lucian," said Eyer quietly. "Look at the window." They both looked. Countless fingers of shadowy gray substance were undulating up the surface of the window, like pale angleworms or white serpents of many sizes, trying to climb up a pane of glass. "Well," said Jeter, "here we are! You see?
"Well, here's the place to find 'em," asserted Tim. "I'm getting some. You always find angleworms where the ground's moist. They like it, because the rain comes down off the roof here. There you are, grab that fat fellow." The girl made a grab at a bit of the soft earth, where a worm was wriggling back into its hole.
He choked because he was angry. "It's no use," he said gloomily to Mrs. Robin, as soon as he could speak. "It's no use trying to get Grandfather Mole to stop eating angleworms. In my opinion, he's too old to turn over a new leaf the way I meant. "You can't teach an old Mole new tricks," said Mr. Blackbird. GRANDFATHER MOLE was resting in the shade of a toadstool.

"I hope you don't want me to catch angleworms for you," Grandfather Mole told him. "The neighbors are always asking me to do that. And I've decided that I can't do it. Somehow I can't help eating 'em myself."
