We justify this faith in us as we pay for the Bridge by redeeming the bond.
Then at the extreme opposite corner of their central chamber they tunneled a new passageway, which brought them out quite on the other side of the hillock. This done, they felt very pleased with themselves, and settled down for a well-earned sleep, curled up in a furry ball together. "At daybreak the owls came home.
