Welcome, PDyer!

Yes, in chapter 12 of Surprised by Joy.
Rat! he found breath to whisper, shaking. Are you afraid?
Afraid? murmured the Rat, his eyes shining with unutterable love.
Afraid! Of Him? O, never, never! And yet -- and yet -- O, Mole, I am afraid!
Then the two animals, crouching to the earth, bowed their heads and did worship.

I wouldn't dream of asking for a link to an electronic version of that book. But if one appeared in a pm or an e-mail I would try to contain my dismay...
