Around
the
brave
Tiger
Lily
were
a
dozen
of
her
stoutest
warriors
,
and
they
suddenly
saw
the
perfidious
pirates
bearing
down
upon
them
.
Fell
from
their
eyes
then
the
film
through
which
they
had
looked
at
victory
.
No
more
would
they
torture
at
the
stake
.
For
them
the
happy
hunting-grounds
now
.
They
knew
it
;
but
as
their
fathers
'
sons
they
acquitted
themselves
.
Even
then
they
had
time
to
gather
in
a
phalanx
that
would
have
been
hard
to
break
had
they
risen
quickly
,
but
this
they
were
forbidden
to
do
by
the
traditions
of
their
race
.
It
is
written
that
the
noble
savage
must
never
express
surprise
in
the
presence
of
the
white
.
Thus
terrible
as
the
sudden
appearance
of
the
pirates
must
have
been
to
them
,
they
remained
stationary
for
a
moment
,
not
a
muscle
moving
;
as
if
the
foe
had
come
by
invitation
.
Then
,
indeed
,
the
tradition
gallantly
upheld
,
they
seized
their
weapons
,
and
the
air
was
torn
with
the
warcry
;
but
it
was
now
too
late
.
It
is
no
part
of
ours
to
describe
what
was
a
massacre
rather
than
a
fight
.
Thus
perished
many
of
the
flower
of
the
Piccaninny
tribe
.
Not
all
unavenged
did
they
die
,
for
with
Lean
Wolf
fell
Alf
Mason
,
to
disturb
the
Spanish
Main
no
more
;
and
among
others
who
bit
the
dust
were
Geo
.
Scourie
,
Chas
.
Turley
,
and
the
Alsatian
Foggerty
.
Turley
fell
to
the
tomahawk
of
the
terrible
Panther
,
who
ultimately
cut
a
way
through
the
pirates
with
Tiger
Lily
and
a
small
remnant
of
the
tribe
.
To
what
extent
Hook
is
to
blame
for
his
tactics
on
this
occasion
is
for
the
historian
to
decide
.
Had
he
waited
on
the
rising
ground
till
the
proper
hour
he
and
his
men
would
probably
have
been
butchered
;
and
in
judging
him
it
is
only
fair
to
take
this
into
account
.
What
he
should
perhaps
have
done
was
to
acquaint
his
opponents
that
he
proposed
to
follow
a
new
method
.
On
the
other
hand
this
,
as
destroying
the
element
of
surprise
,
would
have
made
his
strategy
of
no
avail
,
so
that
the
whole
question
is
beset
with
difficulties
.
One
can
not
at
least
withhold
a
reluctant
admiration
for
the
wit
that
had
conceived
so
bold
a
scheme
,
and
the
fell
genius
with
which
it
was
carried
out
.
What
were
his
own
feelings
about
himself
at
that
triumphant
moment
?
Fain
would
his
dogs
have
known
,
as
breathing
heavily
and
wiping
their
cutlasses
,
they
gathered
at
a
discreet
distance
from
his
hook
,
and
squinted
through
their
ferret
eyes
at
this
extraordinary
man
.
Elation
must
have
been
in
his
heart
,
but
his
face
did
not
reflect
it
:
ever
a
dark
and
solitary
enigma
,
he
stood
aloof
from
his
followers
in
spirit
as
in
substance
.
The
night
's
work
was
not
yet
over
,
for
it
was
not
the
redskins
he
had
come
out
to
destroy
;
they
were
but
the
bees
to
be
smoked
,
so
that
he
should
get
at
the
honey
.
It
was
Pan
he
wanted
,
Pan
and
Wendy
and
their
band
,
but
chiefly
Pan
.
Peter
was
such
a
small
boy
that
one
tends
to
wonder
at
the
man
's
hatred
of
him
.
True
he
had
flung
Hook
's
arm
to
the
crocodile
;
but
even
this
and
the
increased
insecurity
of
life
to
which
it
led
,
owing
to
the
crocodile
's
pertinacity
,
hardly
account
for
a
vindictiveness
so
relentless
and
malignant
.
The
truth
is
that
there
was
a
something
about
Peter
which
goaded
the
pirate
captain
to
frenzy
.
It
was
not
his
courage
,
it
was
not
his
engaging
appearance
,
it
was
not
--
.
There
is
no
beating
about
the
bush
,
for
we
know
quite
well
what
it
was
,
and
have
got
to
tell
.
It
was
Peter
's
cockiness
.
This
had
got
on
Hook
's
nerves
;
it
made
his
iron
claw
twitch
,
and
at
night
it
disturbed
him
like
an
insect
.
While
Peter
lived
,
the
tortured
man
felt
that
he
was
a
lion
in
a
cage
into
which
a
sparrow
had
come
.
The
question
now
was
how
to
get
down
the
trees
,
or
how
to
get
his
dogs
down
?
He
ran
his
greedy
eyes
over
them
,
searching
for
the
thinnest
ones
.
They
wriggled
uncomfortably
,
for
they
knew
he
would
not
scruple
to
ram
them
down
with
poles
.
In
the
meantime
,
what
of
the
boys
?
We
have
seen
them
at
the
first
clang
of
weapons
,
turned
as
it
were
into
stone
figures
,
open-mouthed
,
all
appealing
with
outstretched
arms
to
Peter
;
and
we
return
to
them
as
their
mouths
close
,
and
their
arms
fall
to
their
sides
The
pandemonium
above
has
ceased
almost
as
suddenly
as
it
arose
,
passed
like
a
fierce
gust
of
wind
;
but
they
know
that
in
the
passing
it
has
determined
their
fate
.
