Unlike
any
other
wall
with
which
he
had
had
experience
,
this
wall
seemed
to
recede
from
him
as
he
approached
.
No
hard
surface
collided
with
the
tender
little
nose
he
thrust
out
tentatively
before
him
.
The
substance
of
the
wall
seemed
as
permeable
and
yielding
as
light
.
And
as
condition
,
in
his
eyes
,
had
the
seeming
of
form
,
so
he
entered
into
what
had
been
wall
to
him
and
bathed
in
the
substance
that
composed
it
.
362
It
was
bewildering
.
He
was
sprawling
through
solidity
.
And
ever
the
light
grew
brighter
.
Fear
urged
him
to
go
back
,
but
growth
drove
him
on
.
Suddenly
he
found
himself
at
the
mouth
of
the
cave
.
The
wall
,
inside
which
he
had
thought
himself
,
as
suddenly
leaped
back
before
him
to
an
immeasurable
distance
.
The
light
had
become
painfully
bright
.
He
was
dazzled
by
it
.
Likewise
he
was
made
dizzy
by
this
abrupt
and
tremendous
extension
of
space
.
Automatically
,
his
eyes
were
adjusting
themselves
to
the
brightness
,
focusing
themselves
to
meet
the
increased
distance
of
objects
.
At
first
,
the
wall
had
leaped
beyond
his
vision
.
He
now
saw
it
again
;
but
it
had
taken
upon
itself
a
remarkable
remoteness
.
Also
,
its
appearance
had
changed
.
It
was
now
a
variegated
wall
,
composed
of
the
trees
that
fringed
the
stream
,
the
opposing
mountain
that
towered
above
the
trees
,
and
the
sky
that
out-towered
the
mountain
.
363
A
great
fear
came
upon
him
.
This
was
more
of
the
terrible
unknown
.
He
crouched
down
on
the
lip
of
the
cave
and
gazed
out
on
the
world
.
He
was
very
much
afraid
.
Because
it
was
unknown
,
it
was
hostile
to
him
.
Therefore
the
hair
stood
up
on
end
along
his
back
and
his
lips
wrinkled
weakly
in
an
attempt
at
a
ferocious
and
intimidating
snarl
.

Out
of
his
puniness
and
fright
he
challenged
and
menaced
the
whole
wide
world
.
365
Nothing
happened
.
He
continued
to
gaze
,
and
in
his
interest
he
forgot
to
snarl
.
Also
,
he
forgot
to
be
afraid
.
For
the
time
,
fear
had
been
routed
by
growth
,
while
growth
had
assumed
the
guise
of
curiosity
.
He
began
to
notice
near
objects
--
an
open
portion
of
the
stream
that
flashed
in
the
sun
,
the
blasted
pine-tree
that
stood
at
the
base
of
the
slope
,
and
the
slope
itself
,
that
ran
right
up
to
him
and
ceased
two
feet
beneath
the
lip
of
the
cave
on
which
he
crouched
.
366
Now
the
grey
cub
had
lived
all
his
days
on
a
level
floor
.
He
had
never
experienced
the
hurt
of
a
fall
.
He
did
not
know
what
a
fall
was
.
So
he
stepped
boldly
out
upon
the
air
.
His
hind-legs
still
rested
on
the
cave-lip
,
so
he
fell
forward
head
downward
.
The
earth
struck
him
a
harsh
blow
on
the
nose
that
made
him
yelp
.
Then
he
began
rolling
down
the
slope
,
over
and
over
.
He
was
in
a
panic
of
terror
.
The
unknown
had
caught
him
at
last
.
It
had
gripped
savagely
hold
of
him
and
was
about
to
wreak
upon
him
some
terrific
hurt
.
Growth
was
now
routed
by
fear
,
and
he
ki-yi
'd
like
any
frightened
puppy
.
367
The
unknown
bore
him
on
he
knew
not
to
what
frightful
hurt
,
and
he
yelped
and
ki-yi
'd
unceasingly
.
This
was
a
different
proposition
from
crouching
in
frozen
fear
while
the
unknown
lurked
just
alongside
.
Now
the
unknown
had
caught
tight
hold
of
him
.
Silence
would
do
no
good
.
Besides
,
it
was
not
fear
,
but
terror
,
that
convulsed
him
.

But
the
slope
grew
more
gradual
,
and
its
base
was
grass-covered
.
Here
the
cub
lost
momentum
.
When
at
last
he
came
to
a
stop
,
he
gave
one
last
agonised
yell
and
then
a
long
,
whimpering
wail
.
369
Also
,
and
quite
as
a
matter
of
course
,
as
though
in
his
life
he
had
already
made
a
thousand
toilets
,
he
proceeded
to
lick
away
the
dry
clay
that
soiled
him
.
370
After
that
he
sat
up
and
gazed
about
him
,
as
might
the
first
man
of
the
earth
who
landed
upon
Mars
.
The
cub
had
broken
through
the
wall
of
the
world
,
the
unknown
had
let
go
its
hold
of
him
,
and
here
he
was
without
hurt
.
But
the
first
man
on
Mars
would
have
experienced
less
unfamiliarity
than
did
he
.
Without
any
antecedent
knowledge
,
without
any
warning
whatever
that
such
existed
,
he
found
himself
an
explorer
in
a
totally
new
world
.
