"Another one to be eating up our meat," he said. "Just as if there weren't enough of us without." Still he went over with them to the icehill and they all began sliding down. After a while Sprawley said: "I know a great deal nicer hill than this one. It's just a little farther on; come on and I'll show it to you." "Oh," said Fatty, "but suppose we should see some ice-mermen?"
He listened, but everything was silent except for the rumbling and cracking of the ice in the distance. Again he called, and this time there was an answering cry, and another, and another. Sprawley stood up and waved his paws, and then Teddy saw that the open water was dotted with heads of ice-mermen; there must have been ten or twelve of them at least.
"Pooh!" said Sprawley, "I ain't afraid. It's a great deal nicer than this. Come on." So the three little bears and Teddy trotted on to another hill, and it really was much longer and steeper than the other; it went down almost to the edge of the sea. They had slidden down it only a few times when Dumpy cried out: "Oh! look! look! There are some ice-mermen and they are making faces at me."
"They were ice-mermen," said the Counterpane Fairy. "Naughty, mischievous things they are. I'd like to pack them all off to the North Pole if I could." "Oh, look! look!" cried Teddy. "Just look at those little bears playing over there." They had drifted in quite near to the shore, and in among the blocks of ice three white bear cubs were playing together like fat little boys.
