“For Heaven’s sake don‘t let him get started about Art and all that，” said Edmund hurriedly， but Lucy， who was very truthful， had already said， “Yes， I do. I like it very much.”
“It’s a rotten picture，” said Eustace.
“You won‘t see it if you step outside，” said Edmund. “Why do you like it？” said Eustace to Lucy.
“Well， for one thing，” said Lucy， “I like it because the shipoks as if it were really moving. And the water looks as if were really wet. And the waves look as if they were really oing up and down.”
Of course Eustace knew lots of answers to this， bute didn’t say anything. The reason was that at that very oment he looked at the waves and saw that they did look ery much indeed as if they were going up and down. He ad only once been in a ship （and then only as far as the Isle f Wight） and had been horribly seasick. The look of the aves in the picture made him feel sick again. He turned ather green and tried another look. And then all three hildren were staring with open mouths.
