And presently the fever turned, and the Boy got better. He was able to sit up in bed and look at picture books, while the little Rabbit cuddled close at his side. And one day, they let him get up and dress. AND PRESENTLY THE FEVER TURNED AND THE BOY GOT BETTER HE WAS ABLE TO SIT UP IN BED AND LOOK AT PICTURE BOOKS WHILE THE LITTLE RABBIT CUDDLED CLOSE AT HIS SIDE AND ONE DAY THEY LET HIM GET UP AND DRESS
 matter. And then, one day, the Boy was ill. His face grew very flushed, and he talked in his sleep, and his little body was so hot that it burned the Rabbit when he held him close. Strange people came and went in the nursery, and a light burned all night and through it all the little Velveteen Rabbit lay there, hidden from sight under the bedclothes, and he never stirred, for he was afraid that if they found him some one might take him away, and he knew that the Boy needed him. It was a long weary time, for the Boy was too ill to play, and the little Rabbit found it rather dull with nothing to do all day long. But he snuggled down patiently, and looked forward to the time when the Boy should be well again, and they would go out in the garden amongst the flowers and the butterflies and play splendid games in the raspberry thicket like they used to. All sorts of delightful things he planned, and while the Boy lay half asleep he crept up close to the pillow and whispered them in his ear. AL SHABBINESS DOESN'T MATTER AND THEN ONE DAY THE BOY WAS ILL HIS FACE GREW VERY FLUSHED AND HE TALKED IN HIS SLEEP AND HIS LITTLE BODY WAS SO HOT THAT IT BURNED THE RABBIT WHEN HE HELD HIM CLOSE STRANGE PEOPLE CAME AND WENT IN THE NURSERY AND A LIGHT BURNED ALL NIGHT AND THROUGH IT ALL THE LITTLE VELVETEEN RABBIT LAY THERE HIDDEN FROM SIGHT UNDER THE BEDCLOTHES AND HE NEVER STIRRED FOR HE WAS AFRAID THAT IF THEY FOUND HIM SOME ONE MIGHT TAKE HIM AWAY AND HE KNEW THAT THE BOY NEEDED HIM IT WAS A LONG WEARY TIME FOR THE BOY WAS TOO ILL TO PLAY AND THE LITTLE RABBIT FOUND IT RATHER DULL WITH NOTHING TO DO ALL DAY LONG BUT HE SNUGGLED DOWN PATIENTLY AND LOOKED FORWARD TO THE TIME WHEN THE BOY SHOULD BE WELL AGAIN AND THEY WOULD GO OUT IN THE GARDEN AMONGST THE FLOWERS AND THE BUTTERFLIES AND PLAY SPLENDID GAMES IN THE RASPBERRY THICKET LIKE THEY USED TO ALL SORTS OF DELIGHTFUL THINGS HE PLANNED AND WHILE THE BOY LAY HALF ASLEEP HE CREPT UP CLOSE TO THE PILLOW AND WHISPERED THEM IN HIS EAR
