Yet I could persuade myself, after my last adventures, to go back, and have nothing more to do with such strange beings." "How will you go back?" said the woman. "Nay, that I do not know." "Because I have heard, that, for those who enter Fairy Land, there is no way of going back. They must go on, and go through it. How, I do not in the least know."
