The camel responded with q cough
and quickened gait.
Presently George became aware Of
singular fact: that he could see out
OF one eye better than the other;
and that the seml-useless orb shot out
little stars with every beat of his
heart One of his ears, too, began to
throb and burn. He felt Of It It was
less like an ear than mushroom 1t
had been rattling good mix-up, any
how; and he accepted the knowledge
rather proudly that the George Perci-
val Algernon, who but lately had en-
tered the English-Bar sprucely and
had made his exit In a kind of negli-
gible attire, had left behind one char
acter and brought away another. New
er again was he going to be shy: the
tame tiger, as 1t were, had had his
first taste Of blood.
Dawn, dawn; II only the horizon
would brighten up little so that he
could get his bearings. By now they
were at least fifteen or twenty miles
from Cairo; but in what direction?
Hour after hour went by; over this
huge grey roll Of sand, down into that
cup-like valley; soundless save when
the camels protested or his stirrup
clinked against buckle; all with the
somber aspect of scene from Dante.
Several black spots, moving in circles
far above, once attracted George; and
he knew them to be kites, which will
follow a caravan into the desert even
as a gull will follow ship out to sea.
Later, a torpid Indifference took pos
session Of him, and the sense of pain
grew less under the encroaching
numbness.
And when at last the splendor Of
the dawn upon the desert flashed like
a sword-blade along the sky in the
east, grew and widened, George COM
pretended one thing clearly, that they
were in the Arabian desert, out of the
main travelled paths, in the middle of
nowhere.
His sense of beauty did not respond
to the marvel Of the transformation.
The dark grey Of the sand-hills that
became violet at their bases, to fade
away upward into little pinnacles of
shimmering gold; the drab, formless,
scattered boulders, now assuming
clear-cut shapes, transfused with ruby
and sapphire glowing; the sun itself
that presently lifted its rosal warm
ing circle above the stepping-off
plaoe-George saw but noted not. The
physical picture was overshadowed by
the one he drew in his mind: the good
ship Ludwig, boring her way out into
the sea.
The sun was free from the deserts
rim when the leading camel was halt
ed. A confusion ensued; the camels
following stupidity into one another, in
a Kind Of panic. Out of the silence
came babble of voices. a grunting,
clatter of pack-baskets and saddle
bags. George, as his camel kneeled,
slid on involuntarily and tumbled
against small hillock, and lay there,
without any distinct sense of what
was going on round him. The sand,
fine and mutable, formed a couch COM
foringly under his aching body; and
ne fell asleep, exhausted. Already the
