Alone
of
all
mankind
I
saw
and
foretold
this
catastrophe
,
"
said
he
with
a
ring
of
exultation
and
scientific
triumph
in
his
voice
.
"
As
to
you
,
my
good
Summerlee
,
I
trust
your
last
doubts
have
been
resolved
as
to
the
meaning
of
the
blurring
of
the
lines
in
the
spectrum
and
that
you
will
no
longer
contend
that
my
letter
in
the
Times
was
based
upon
a
delusion
.
"
For
once
our
pugnacious
colleague
was
deaf
to
a
challenge
.
He
could
but
sit
gasping
and
stretching
his
long
,
thin
limbs
,
as
if
to
assure
himself
that
he
was
still
really
upon
this
planet
.
Challenger
walked
across
to
the
oxygen
tube
,
and
the
sound
of
the
loud
hissing
fell
away
till
it
was
the
most
gentle
sibilation
.
"
We
must
husband
our
supply
of
the
gas
,
"
said
he
.
"
The
atmosphere
of
the
room
is
now
strongly
hyperoxygenated
,
and
I
take
it
that
none
of
us
feel
any
distressing
symptoms
.
We
can
only
determine
by
actual
experiments
what
amount
added
to
the
air
will
serve
to
neutralize
the
poison
.
Let
us
see
how
that
will
do
.
"
We
sat
in
silent
nervous
tension
for
five
minutes
or
more
,
observing
our
own
sensations
.
I
had
just
begun
to
fancy
that
I
felt
the
constriction
round
my
temples
again
when
Mrs
.
Challenger
called
out
from
the
sofa
that
she
was
fainting
.
Her
husband
turned
on
more
gas
.
"
In
pre
-
scientific
days
,
"
said
he
,
"
they
used
to
keep
a
white
mouse
in
every
submarine
,
as
its
more
delicate
organization
gave
signs
of
a
vicious
atmosphere
before
it
was
perceived
by
the
sailors
.
You
,
my
dear
,
will
be
our
white
mouse
.
I
have
now
increased
the
supply
and
you
are
better
.
"
"
Yes
,
I
am
better
.
"
"
Possibly
we
have
hit
upon
the
correct
mixture
.
When
we
have
ascertained
exactly
how
little
will
serve
we
shall
be
able
to
compute
how
long
we
shall
be
able
to
exist
.
Unfortunately
,
in
resuscitating
ourselves
we
have
already
consumed
a
considerable
proportion
of
this
first
tube
.
"
"
Does
it
matter
?
"
asked
Lord
John
,
who
was
standing
with
his
hands
in
his
pockets
close
to
the
window
.
"
If
we
have
to
go
,
what
is
the
use
of
holdin
’
on
?
You
don
’
t
suppose
there
’
s
any
chance
for
us
?
"
Challenger
smiled
and
shook
his
head
.
"
Well
,
then
,
don
’
t
you
think
there
is
more
dignity
in
takin
’
the
jump
and
not
waitin
’
to
be
pushed
in
?
If
it
must
be
so
,
I
’
m
for
sayin
’
our
prayers
,
turnin
’
off
the
gas
,
and
openin
’
the
window
.
