Another
moment
brought
the
professor
within
the
sphere
of
the
friendly
grip
,
and
he
,
too
,
was
drawn
upward
to
safety
just
as
the
baffled
Numa
,
with
a
roar
,
leaped
to
recover
his
vanishing
quarry
.
For
a
moment
the
two
men
clung
panting
to
the
great
branch
,
while
Tarzan
squatted
with
his
back
to
the
stem
of
the
tree
,
watching
them
with
mingled
curiosity
and
amusement
.
It
was
the
professor
who
first
broke
the
silence
.
"
I
am
deeply
pained
,
Mr.
Philander
,
that
you
should
have
evinced
such
a
paucity
of
manly
courage
in
the
presence
of
one
of
the
lower
orders
,
and
by
your
crass
timidity
have
caused
me
to
exert
myself
to
such
an
unaccustomed
degree
in
order
that
I
might
resume
my
discourse
.
As
I
was
saying
,
Mr.
Philander
,
when
you
interrupted
me
,
the
Moors
--
"
"
Professor
Archimedes
Q.
Porter
,
"
broke
in
Mr.
Philander
,
in
icy
tones
,
"
the
time
has
arrived
when
patience
becomes
a
crime
and
mayhem
appears
garbed
in
the
mantle
of
virtue
.
You
have
accused
me
of
cowardice
.
You
have
insinuated
that
you
ran
only
to
overtake
me
,
not
to
escape
the
clutches
of
the
lion
.
Have
a
care
,
Professor
Archimedes
Q.
Porter
!
I
am
a
desperate
man
.
Goaded
by
long-suffering
patience
the
worm
will
turn
.
"
"
Tut
,
tut
,
Mr.
Philander
,
tut
,
tut
!
"
cautioned
Professor
Porter
;
"
you
forget
yourself
.
"
"
I
forget
nothing
as
yet
,
Professor
Archimedes
Q.
Porter
;
but
,
believe
me
,
sir
,
I
am
tottering
on
the
verge
of
forgetfulness
as
to
your
exalted
position
in
the
world
of
science
,
and
your
gray
hairs
.
"
The
professor
sat
in
silence
for
a
few
minutes
,
and
the
darkness
hid
the
grim
smile
that
wreathed
his
wrinkled
countenance
.
Presently
he
spoke
.
"
Look
here
,
Skinny
Philander
,
"
he
said
,
in
belligerent
tones
,
"
if
you
are
lookin
'
for
a
scrap
,
peel
off
your
coat
and
come
on
down
on
the
ground
,
and
I
'll
punch
your
head
just
as
I
did
sixty
years
ago
in
the
alley
back
of
Porky
Evans
'
barn
.
"
"
Ark
!
"
gasped
the
astonished
Mr.
Philander
.
"
Lordy
,
how
good
that
sounds
!
When
you
're
human
,
Ark
,
I
love
you
;
but
somehow
it
seems
as
though
you
had
forgotten
how
to
be
human
for
the
last
twenty
years
.
