“Pooh!” cried Piglet. “Do you think it is another Woozle?”
“No,” said Pooh, “because it makes different marks. It is either Two Woozles and one, as it might be, Wizzle, or Two, as it might be, Wizzles and one, if so it is, Woozle. Let us continue to follow them.”
So they went on, feeling just a little anxious now (и они пошли дальше, чувствуя себя лишь немного тревожно теперь), in case the three animals in front of them were of Hostile Intent (в случае если три зверя перед ними имели Враждебные Намерения). And Piglet wished very much that his Grandfather T. W. were there, instead of elsewhere (и Пятачок очень желал, чтобы его Дедушка П.В. был там = тут, вместо того, чтобы находиться где-то в другом месте), and Pooh thought how nice it would be if they met Christopher Robin suddenly but quite accidentally (а Пух думал, как здорово было бы, если бы они вдруг встретили Кристофера Робина, но совершенно случайно; accident — случай), and only because he liked Christopher Robin so much (и лишь потому, что он так сильно любил Кристофера Робина). And then, all of a sudden, Winnie-the-Pooh stopped again, and licked the tip of his nose in a cooling manner (а потом, совершенно неожиданно Винни-Пух снова остановился и облизал кончик своего носа в охлаждающей манере = чтобы охладить его), for he was feeling more hot and anxious than ever in his life before (так как он чувствовал себя более горячим и беспокойным = ему стало жарче и тревожнее, чем когда-либо прежде в его жизни). There were four animals in front of them (перед ними было четверо зверей)!

“Do you see, Piglet (видишь, Пятачок)? Look at their tracks (посмотри на их следы)! Three, as it were, Woozles, and one, as it was, Wizzle (три, скажем, Расплоха, и один, скажем, Дваплох). Another Woozle has joined them
