We
are
back
in
normal
conditions
,
"
he
cried
.
"
The
world
has
cleared
the
poison
belt
,
but
we
alone
of
all
mankind
are
saved
.
"
I
remember
that
we
all
sat
gasping
in
our
chairs
,
with
that
sweet
,
wet
south
-
western
breeze
,
fresh
from
the
sea
,
flapping
the
muslin
curtains
and
cooling
our
flushed
faces
.
I
wonder
how
long
we
sat
!
None
of
us
afterwards
could
agree
at
all
on
that
point
.
We
were
bewildered
,
stunned
,
semi
-
conscious
.
We
had
all
braced
our
courage
for
death
,
but
this
fearful
and
sudden
new
fact
—
that
we
must
continue
to
live
after
we
had
survived
the
race
to
which
we
belonged
—
struck
us
with
the
shock
of
a
physical
blow
and
left
us
prostrate
.
Then
gradually
the
suspended
mechanism
began
to
move
once
more
;
the
shuttles
of
memory
worked
;
ideas
weaved
themselves
together
in
our
minds
.
We
saw
,
with
vivid
,
merciless
clearness
,
the
relations
between
the
past
,
the
present
,
and
the
future
—
the
lives
that
we
had
led
and
the
lives
which
we
would
have
to
live
.
Our
eyes
turned
in
silent
horror
upon
those
of
our
companions
and
found
the
same
answering
look
in
theirs
.
Instead
of
the
joy
which
men
might
have
been
expected
to
feel
who
had
so
narrowly
escaped
an
imminent
death
,
a
terrible
wave
of
darkest
depression
submerged
us
.
Everything
on
earth
that
we
loved
had
been
washed
away
into
the
great
,
infinite
,
unknown
ocean
,
and
here
were
we
marooned
upon
this
desert
island
of
a
world
,
without
companions
,
hopes
,
or
aspirations
.
A
few
years
’
skulking
like
jackals
among
the
graves
of
the
human
race
and
then
our
belated
and
lonely
end
would
come
.
"
It
’
s
dreadful
,
George
,
dreadful
!
"
the
lady
cried
in
an
agony
of
sobs
.
"
If
we
had
only
passed
with
the
others
!
Oh
,
why
did
you
save
us
?
I
feel
as
if
it
is
we
that
are
dead
and
everyone
else
alive
.
"
Challenger
’
s
great
eyebrows
were
drawn
down
in
concentrated
thought
,
while
his
huge
,
hairy
paw
closed
upon
the
outstretched
hand
of
his
wife
.
I
had
observed
that
she
always
held
out
her
arms
to
him
in
trouble
as
a
child
would
to
its
mother
.
"
Without
being
a
fatalist
to
the
point
of
nonresistance
,
"
said
he
,
"
I
have
always
found
that
the
highest
wisdom
lies
in
an
acquiescence
with
the
actual
.
"
He
spoke
slowly
,
and
there
was
a
vibration
of
feeling
in
his
sonorous
voice
.
"
I
do
not
acquiesce
,
"
said
Summerlee
firmly
.
"
I
don
’
t
see
that
it
matters
a
row
of
pins
whether
you
acquiesce
or
whether
you
don
’
t
,
"
remarked
Lord
John
.
"
You
’
ve
got
to
take
it
,
whether
you
take
it
fightin
’
or
take
it
lyin
’
down
,
so
what
’
s
the
odds
whether
you
acquiesce
or
not
?
"
I
can
’
t
remember
that
anyone
asked
our
permission
before
the
thing
began
,
and
nobody
’
s
likely
to
ask
it
now
.
So
what
difference
can
it
make
what
we
may
think
of
it
?
"
"
It
is
just
all
the
difference
between
happiness
and
misery
,
"
said
Challenger
with
an
abstracted
face
,
still
patting
his
wife
’
s
hand
.
"
You
can
swim
with
the
tide
and
have
peace
in
mind
and
soul
,
or
you
can
thrust
against
it
and
be
bruised
and
weary
.
This
business
is
beyond
us
,
so
let
us
accept
it
as
it
stands
and
say
no
more
.
