This
angered
him
,
and
he
grabbed
me
suddenly
and
threw
me
on
my
back
.
Of
course
we
fought
,
and
in
the
end
I
chased
him
up
a
tree
,
where
he
secured
a
long
branch
and
poked
me
every
time
I
tried
to
get
at
him
.
And
the
idea
had
gone
glimmering
.
I
did
not
know
,
and
he
had
forgotten
.
But
the
next
morning
it
awoke
in
him
again
.
Perhaps
it
was
the
homing
instinct
in
him
asserting
itself
that
made
the
idea
persist
.
At
any
rate
it
was
there
,
and
clearer
than
before
.
He
led
me
down
to
the
water
,
where
a
log
had
grounded
in
an
eddy
.
I
thought
he
was
minded
to
play
,
as
we
had
played
in
the
mouth
of
the
slough
.
Nor
did
I
change
my
mind
as
I
watched
him
tow
up
a
second
log
from
farther
down
the
shore
.
It
was
not
until
we
were
on
the
logs
,
side
by
side
and
holding
them
together
,
and
had
paddled
out
into
the
current
,
that
I
learned
his
intention
.
He
paused
to
point
at
the
far
shore
,
and
resumed
his
paddling
,
at
the
same
time
uttering
loud
and
encouraging
cries
.
I
understood
,
and
we
paddled
energetically
.
The
swift
current
caught
us
,
flung
us
toward
the
south
shore
,
but
before
we
could
make
a
landing
flung
us
back
toward
the
north
shore
.
Here
arose
dissension
.
Seeing
the
north
shore
so
near
,
I
began
to
paddle
for
it
.
Lop
-
Ear
tried
to
paddle
for
the
south
shore
.
The
logs
swung
around
in
circles
,
and
we
got
nowhere
,
and
all
the
time
the
forest
was
flashing
past
as
we
drifted
down
the
stream
.
We
could
not
fight
.
We
knew
better
than
to
let
go
the
grips
of
hands
and
feet
that
held
the
logs
together
.
But
we
chattered
and
abused
each
other
with
our
tongues
until
the
current
flung
us
toward
the
south
bank
again
That
was
now
the
nearest
goal
,
and
together
and
amicably
we
paddled
for
it
.
We
landed
in
an
eddy
,
and
climbed
directly
into
the
trees
to
reconnoitre
.
It
was
not
until
the
night
of
our
first
day
on
the
south
bank
of
the
river
that
we
discovered
the
Fire
People
.
What
must
have
been
a
band
of
wandering
hunters
went
into
camp
not
far
from
the
tree
in
which
Lop
-
Ear
and
I
had
elected
to
roost
for
the
night
.
The
voices
of
the
Fire
People
at
first
alarmed
us
,
but
later
,
when
darkness
had
come
,
we
were
attracted
by
the
fire
.
We
crept
cautiously
and
silently
from
tree
to
tree
till
we
got
a
good
view
of
the
scene
.
In
an
open
space
among
the
trees
,
near
to
the
river
,
the
fire
was
burning
.
About
it
were
half
a
dozen
Fire
-
Men
.
Lop
-
Ear
clutched
me
suddenly
,
and
I
could
feel
him
tremble
.
I
looked
more
closely
,
and
saw
the
wizened
little
old
hunter
who
had
shot
Broken
-
Tooth
out
of
the
tree
years
before
.
When
he
got
up
and
walked
about
,
throwing
fresh
wood
upon
the
fire
,
I
saw
that
he
limped
with
his
crippled
leg
.
Whatever
it
was
,
it
was
a
permanent
injury
.
He
seemed
more
dried
up
and
wizened
than
ever
,
and
the
hair
on
his
face
was
quite
gray
.
The
other
hunters
were
young
men
.
I
noted
,
lying
near
them
on
the
ground
,
their
bows
and
arrows
,
and
I
knew
the
weapons
for
what
they
were
.
The
Fire
-
Men
wore
animal
skins
around
their
waists
and
across
their
shoulders
.
Their
arms
and
legs
,
however
,
were
bare
,
and
they
wore
no
footgear
.
As
I
have
said
before
,
they
were
not
quite
so
hairy
as
we
of
the
Folk
.
They
did
not
have
large
heads
,
and
between
them
and
the
Folk
there
was
very
little
difference
in
the
degree
of
the
slant
of
the
head
back
from
the
eyes
.
They
were
less
stooped
than
we
,
less
springy
in
their
movements
.
Their
backbones
and
hips
and
knee
-
joints
seemed
more
rigid
.
Their
arms
were
not
so
long
as
ours
either
,
and
I
did
not
notice
that
they
ever
balanced
themselves
when
they
walked
,
by
touching
the
ground
on
either
side
with
their
hands
.
Also
,
their
muscles
were
more
rounded
and
symmetrical
than
ours
,
and
their
faces
were
more
pleasing
.
Their
nose
orifices
opened
downward
;
likewise
the
bridges
of
their
noses
were
more
developed
,
did
not
look
so
squat
nor
crushed
as
ours
.
Their
lips
were
less
flabby
and
pendent
,
and
their
eye
-
teeth
did
not
look
so
much
like
fangs
.
However
,
they
were
quite
as
thin
-
hipped
as
we
,
and
did
not
weigh
much
more
.
Take
it
all
in
all
,
they
were
less
different
from
us
than
were
we
from
the
Tree
People
.
Certainly
,
all
three
kinds
were
related
,
and
not
so
remotely
related
at
that
.
