were always going through his mind.
Composition came natural to him

sunlight. She stood a moment. her
breath coming and going in great
gasps. like that of doe mortally

Like the wounded doe. she fed to
the hills for sanctuary. Coosnah
swung into his pace behind her; and
presently. after an hours climb. they
reached the great fir stump on the
crest of the ridge. Here the girl flung
herself on her knees. gripping her
braids in savage fingers. and for a wild
space something within her that she
had never known in all her life arose
and shook her. She had gone back a
thousand years. Blind rage was upon
her-she wanted to fight as the pre-
historic female fought for her mate.
So she knelt and rocked in the lust
of fury while the little clouds sailed
in an azure sky and the hill streams
trickled to the valleys. and suddenly
bird in high pine top dropped a
string of notes. clear. silvery. spar

covered under them. covering her eyes
