He
was
staring
after
the
boat
.
Hearing
no
answer
,
he
looked
down
to
the
wall
.
North
Wind
was
gone
.
Away
across
the
river
went
a
long
ripple
—
what
sailors
call
a
cat
’
s
paw
.
The
man
in
the
boat
was
putting
up
a
sail
.
The
moon
was
coming
to
herself
on
the
edge
of
a
great
cloud
,
and
the
sail
began
to
shine
white
.
Diamond
rubbed
his
eyes
,
and
wondered
what
it
was
all
about
.
Things
seemed
going
on
around
him
,
and
all
to
understand
each
other
,
but
he
could
make
nothing
of
it
.
So
he
put
his
hands
in
his
pockets
,
and
went
in
to
have
his
tea
.
The
night
was
very
hot
,
for
the
wind
had
fallen
again
.
“
You
don
’
t
seem
very
well
to
-
night
,
Diamond
,
”
said
his
mother
.
“
I
am
quite
well
,
mother
,
”
returned
Diamond
,
who
was
only
puzzled
.
“
I
think
you
had
better
go
to
bed
,
”
she
added
.
“
Very
well
,
mother
,
”
he
answered
.
He
stopped
for
one
moment
to
look
out
of
the
window
.
Above
the
moon
the
clouds
were
going
different
ways
.
Somehow
or
other
this
troubled
him
,
but
,
notwithstanding
,
he
was
soon
fast
asleep
.
He
woke
in
the
middle
of
the
night
and
the
darkness
.
A
terrible
noise
was
rumbling
overhead
,
like
the
rolling
beat
of
great
drums
echoing
through
a
brazen
vault
.
The
roof
of
the
loft
in
which
he
lay
had
no
ceiling
;
only
the
tiles
were
between
him
and
the
sky
.
For
a
while
he
could
not
come
quite
awake
,
for
the
noise
kept
beating
him
down
,
so
that
his
heart
was
troubled
and
fluttered
painfully
.
A
second
peal
of
thunder
burst
over
his
head
,
and
almost
choked
him
with
fear
Nor
did
he
recover
until
the
great
blast
that
followed
,
having
torn
some
tiles
off
the
roof
,
sent
a
spout
of
wind
down
into
his
bed
and
over
his
face
,
which
brought
him
wide
awake
,
and
gave
him
back
his
courage
.
The
same
moment
he
heard
a
mighty
yet
musical
voice
calling
him
.
