 Nature ruled it all but unchal- lenged. Man was a puny creature tolerated on sufferance. The very sounds that pierced it's cloak of si- lence emphasized an implacable hostility to life: the disconsolate mooing of lost calf by a water hole, the cawing of a, pair of bug yards drifting on widespread pin ions toward the hay distance that was Mexico.
