Papylick arrived with his name written on his boots, which were yellow as toffee, and had no laces. This Papylick was made of slices of different coloured cake, and he, too, carried a box with the word "SOY" inscribed upon it, a word which began to interest Smaly, though he was determined not to betray his interest.
Papylick had a nut in one hand, and opening it he put Redy inside and shut it up again.
Smaly, too, was tired, and thinking it much better for him also to be carried, he said:
"Papylick, my dear Papylick," and immediately shut his mouth again with the first finger of his left hand.
Papylick opened another nut and placed Smaly inside it, then the Short-Legged Man put both nuts in his pocket.
Papylick
Now Smaly and Redy could not see the country they were being carried through because the nuts were closed; but Papylick had thought of this, and so the landscapes were painted complete in every detail inside the nuts.
But Smaly and Redy, instead of admiring these landscapes, soon discovered they were painted with delicious sweetstuffs such as they had seen in the jars and pots of the Confectioner.
So they licked off the landscapes.
