Watership Down / fragments

 

  

—Hazel, like nearly all wild animals, was unaccustomed
to look up at the sky. What he thought of as the sky was
the horizon, usually broken by trees and hedges. 

[...] ‘Dandelion, get down!’ He said. ‘What are you

sitting up there?’

‘Because I can see,’ replied Dandelion, with a kind of

excited joy.

‘Come and look! You can see the whole world.’

 

Watership Down, Richard Adams
