What
happened
inside
there
was
no
way
of
telling
,
but
it
is
fair
to
conclude
that
the
two
Folk
slipped
through
the
connecting
crevice
into
the
other
cave
.
This
crevice
was
too
small
to
allow
for
the
passage
of
Saber
-
Tooth
,
and
he
came
out
the
way
he
had
gone
in
,
unsatisfied
and
angry
.
It
was
evident
that
his
night
s
hunting
had
been
unsuccessful
and
that
he
had
expected
to
make
a
meal
off
of
us
.
He
caught
sight
of
the
two
Folk
at
the
other
cave
-
mouth
and
sprang
for
them
.
Of
course
,
they
darted
through
the
passageway
into
the
first
cave
.
He
emerged
angrier
than
ever
and
snarling
.
162
Pandemonium
broke
loose
amongst
the
rest
of
us
.
All
up
and
down
the
great
bluff
,
we
crowded
the
crevices
and
outside
ledges
,
and
we
were
all
chattering
and
shrieking
in
a
thousand
keys
.
163
And
we
were
all
making
faces
snarling
faces
;
this
was
an
instinct
with
us
.
We
were
as
angry
as
Saber
-
Tooth
,
though
our
anger
was
allied
with
fear
.
I
remember
that
I
shrieked
and
made
faces
with
the
best
of
them
.
Not
only
did
they
set
the
example
,
but
I
felt
the
urge
from
within
me
to
do
the
same
things
they
were
doing
.
My
hair
was
bristling
,
and
I
was
convulsed
with
a
fierce
,
unreasoning
rage
.

For
some
time
old
Saber
-
Tooth
continued
dashing
in
and
out
of
first
the
one
cave
and
then
the
other
.
But
the
two
Folk
merely
slipped
back
and
forth
through
the
connecting
crevice
and
eluded
him
.
In
the
meantime
the
rest
of
us
up
the
bluff
had
proceeded
to
action
.
Every
time
he
appeared
outside
we
pelted
him
with
rocks
.
At
first
we
merely
dropped
them
on
him
,
but
we
soon
began
to
whiz
them
down
with
the
added
force
of
our
muscles
.
165
This
bombardment
drew
Saber
-
Tooth
s
attention
to
us
and
made
him
angrier
than
ever
.
He
abandoned
his
pursuit
of
the
two
Folk
and
sprang
up
the
bluff
toward
the
rest
of
us
,
clawing
at
the
crumbling
rock
and
snarling
as
he
clawed
his
upward
way
.
At
this
awful
sight
,
the
last
one
of
us
sought
refuge
inside
our
caves
.
I
know
this
,
because
I
peeped
out
and
saw
the
whole
bluff
-
side
deserted
,
save
for
Saber
-
Tooth
,
who
had
lost
his
footing
and
was
sliding
and
falling
down
.
166
I
called
out
the
cry
of
encouragement
,
and
again
the
bluff
was
covered
by
the
screaming
horde
and
the
stones
were
falling
faster
than
ever
.
Saber
-
Tooth
was
frantic
with
rage
.
Time
and
again
he
assaulted
the
bluff
.
Once
he
even
gained
the
first
crevice
-
entrances
before
he
fell
back
,
but
was
unable
to
force
his
way
inside
.
167
With
each
upward
rush
he
made
,
waves
of
fear
surged
over
us
.
At
first
,
at
such
times
,
most
of
us
dashed
inside
;
but
some
remained
outside
to
hammer
him
with
stones
,
and
soon
all
of
us
remained
outside
and
kept
up
the
fusillade
.

Never
was
so
masterly
a
creature
so
completely
baffled
.
It
hurt
his
pride
terribly
,
thus
to
be
outwitted
by
the
small
and
tender
Folk
.
He
stood
on
the
ground
and
looked
up
at
us
,
snarling
,
lashing
his
tail
,
snapping
at
the
stones
that
fell
near
to
him
.
Once
I
whizzed
down
a
stone
,
and
just
at
the
right
moment
he
looked
up
.
It
caught
him
full
on
the
end
of
his
nose
,
and
he
went
straight
up
in
the
air
,
all
four
feet
of
him
,
roaring
and
caterwauling
,
what
of
the
hurt
and
surprise
.
169
He
was
beaten
and
he
knew
it
.
Recovering
his
dignity
,
he
stalked
out
solemnly
from
under
the
rain
of
stones
.
He
stopped
in
the
middle
of
the
open
space
and
looked
wistfully
and
hungrily
back
at
us
.
He
hated
to
forego
the
meal
,
and
we
were
just
so
much
meat
,
cornered
but
inaccessible
.
This
sight
of
him
started
us
to
laughing
.
We
laughed
derisively
and
uproariously
,
all
of
us
.
Now
animals
do
not
like
mockery
.
To
be
laughed
at
makes
them
angry
.
And
in
such
fashion
our
laughter
affected
Saber
-
Tooth
.
He
turned
with
a
roar
and
charged
the
bluff
again
.
This
was
what
we
wanted
.
The
fight
had
become
a
game
,
and
we
took
huge
delight
in
pelting
him
.
170
But
this
attack
did
not
last
long
.
He
quickly
recovered
his
common
sense
,
and
besides
,
our
missiles
were
shrewd
to
hurt
.
Vividly
do
I
recollect
the
vision
of
one
bulging
eye
of
his
,
swollen
almost
shut
by
one
of
the
stones
we
had
thrown
.
