He was still in the Forest!
“Well, that's funny,” he thought. “I wonder what that bang was. I couldn't have made such a noise just falling down. And where's my balloon? And what's that small piece of damp rag doing?”
It was the balloon!
“Oh, dear!” said Piglet. “Oh, dear, oh, dearie, dearie, dear! Well, it's too late now. I can't go back, and I haven't another balloon, and perhaps Eeyore doesn't like balloons so very much.”
So he trotted on, rather sadly now (и он поспешил дальше, довольно грустно теперь), and down he came to the side of the stream where Eeyore was (и он спустился вниз к берегу ручья, где был Иа), and called out to him (и окликнул его).
“Good morning, Eeyore,” shouted Piglet (доброе утро, Иа, — закричал Пятачок).
“Good morning, Little Piglet,” said Eeyore (доброе утро, Маленький Пятачок, — сказал Иа). “If it is a good morning,” he said (если это доброе утро, — сказал он). “Which I doubt,” said he (в чем я сомневаюсь, — сказал он). “Not that it matters,” he said (не то, чтобы это имело большое значение, — сказал он).
“Many happy returns of the day (много счастливых повторов этого дня[37]),” said Piglet, having now got closer (сказал Пятачок, подойдя теперь ближе).
Eeyore stopped looking at himself in the stream (Иа перестал смотреть на свое отражение в ручье), and turned to stare at Piglet (и обернулся, /чтобы/ пристально вглядеться в Пятачка = и обернувшись, уставился на Пятачка).

“Just say that again,” he said (скажи-ка это еще раз = повтори-ка это, — сказал он).
“Many hap— (много счаст = поздрав…)”
“Wait a moment (подожди секундочку).”
Balancing on three legs (балансируя на трех ногах), he began to bring his fourth leg very cautiously up to his ear (он стал подносить свою четвертую ногу очень осторожно к /своему/ уху). “I did this yesterday,” he explained (я делал это вчера, — пояснил он), as he fell down for the third time (когда /он/ упал в третий раз). “It's quite easy (это совсем легко). It's so as I can hear better (это чтобы я лучше слышал)… There, that's done it
