How does Tilloo manage to find his way to the ‘forbidden passage’?
उत्तर
While his father was enjoying a short rest at home, Tilloo managed to get hold of his security card. Then, evading his watchful mother’s eye, he made his way to the forbidden passage. A metal door barred his entry. However, he had watched his father slip the magic card into a slot. He did the same and the door opened noiselessly. He saw a well-lit passage. Snatching the card which had come out of another slot in the wall, Tilloo started his march along a gentle upward slope.

Was sitting in the sun,
And by him sported on the green

That was so large, and smooth, and round.
