Toad
found
himself
flying
through
the
air
with
the
strong
upward
rush
and
delicate
curve
of
a
swallow
.
He
liked
the
motion
,
and
was
just
beginning
to
wonder
whether
it
would
go
on
until
he
developed
wings
and
turned
into
a
Toad-bird
,
when
he
landed
on
his
back
with
a
thump
,
in
the
soft
,
rich
grass
of
a
meadow
.
Sitting
up
,
he
could
just
see
the
motor-car
in
the
pond
,
nearly
submerged
;
the
gentlemen
and
the
driver
,
encumbered
by
their
long
coats
,
were
floundering
helplessly
in
the
water
.
He
picked
himself
up
rapidly
,
and
set
off
running
across
country
as
hard
as
he
could
,
scrambling
through
hedges
,
jumping
ditches
,
pounding
across
fields
,
till
he
was
breathless
and
weary
,
and
had
to
settle
down
into
an
easy
walk
.
When
he
had
recovered
his
breath
somewhat
,
and
was
able
to
think
calmly
,
he
began
to
giggle
,
and
from
giggling
he
took
to
laughing
,
and
he
laughed
till
he
had
to
sit
down
under
a
hedge
.
"
Ho
!
ho
!
"
he
cried
,
in
ecstasies
of
self-admiration
.
"
Toad
again
!
Toad
,
as
usual
,
comes
out
on
the
top
!
Who
was
it
got
them
to
give
him
a
lift
?
Who
managed
to
get
on
the
front
seat
for
the
sake
of
fresh
air
?
Who
persuaded
them
into
letting
him
see
if
he
could
drive
?
Who
landed
them
all
in
a
horse-pond
?
Who
escaped
,
flying
gaily
and
unscathed
through
the
air
,
leaving
the
narrow-minded
,
grudging
,
timid
excursionists
in
the
mud
where
they
should
rightly
be
?
Why
,
Toad
,
of
course
;
clever
Toad
,
great
Toad
,
good
Toad
!
"
Then
he
burst
into
song
again
,
and
chanted
with
uplifted
voice
--
"
The
motor-car
went
Poop-poop-poop
,
As
it
raced
along
the
road
.
Who
was
it
steered
it
into
a
pond
?
Ingenious
Mr.
Toad
!
O
,
how
clever
I
am
!
How
clever
,
how
clever
,
how
very
clev
--
"
A
slight
noise
at
a
distance
behind
him
made
him
turn
his
head
and
look
.
O
horror
!
O
misery
!
O
despair
!
