The following text is adapted from Kenneth Grahame's 1908 novel The Wind in the Willows.

The Mole has been found by a friend after getting lost in the woods. It is beginning to snow.

The Mole saw the wood that had been so dreadful to him in quite a changed aspect. Holes, hollows, pools, pitfalls, and other menaces to the wayfarer were vanishing fast, and a gleaming carpet was springing up everywhere, that looked too delicate to be trodden upon by rough feet.
