was horribly thirsty. but he felt
pretty sure OF being able to stick 1t

must get over the bars and into the

AFTER bit he pulled himself along
the bars to the side OF the cave.
His wet clothes impeded him. and
he called himself a fool for not
having stripped. He managed to
scramble up the face Of the rock
with the help Of the nearest bar.
No way over here, or for az far as
he could reach outwards. The bars
ran to the roof Of the cave. He
pulled himself across and tried the
other side with no better luck; but
he came on a foothold, and stayed
there leaning against the bars for
what seemed like a long time.
