Just
then
it
occurred
to
Tarzan
of
the
Apes
that
Numa
had
loitered
beneath
the
tree
for
a
sufficient
length
of
time
,
so
he
raised
his
young
head
toward
the
heavens
,
and
there
rang
out
upon
the
terrified
ears
of
the
two
old
men
the
awful
warning
challenge
of
the
anthropoid
.
The
two
friends
,
huddled
trembling
in
their
precarious
position
on
the
limb
,
saw
the
great
lion
halt
in
his
restless
pacing
as
the
blood-curdling
cry
smote
his
ears
,
and
then
slink
quickly
into
the
jungle
,
to
be
instantly
lost
to
view
.
"
Even
the
lion
trembles
in
fear
,
"
whispered
Mr.
Philander
.
"
Most
remarkable
,
most
remarkable
,
"
murmured
Professor
Porter
,
clutching
frantically
at
Mr.
Philander
to
regain
the
balance
which
the
sudden
fright
had
so
perilously
endangered
.
Unfortunately
for
them
both
,
Mr.
Philander
's
center
of
equilibrium
was
at
that
very
moment
hanging
upon
the
ragged
edge
of
nothing
,
so
that
it
needed
but
the
gentle
impetus
supplied
by
the
additional
weight
of
Professor
Porter
's
body
to
topple
the
devoted
secretary
from
the
limb
.
For
a
moment
they
swayed
uncertainly
,
and
then
,
with
mingled
and
most
unscholarly
shrieks
,
they
pitched
headlong
from
the
tree
,
locked
in
frenzied
embrace
.
It
was
quite
some
moments
ere
either
moved
,
for
both
were
positive
that
any
such
attempt
would
reveal
so
many
breaks
and
fractures
as
to
make
further
progress
impossible
.
At
length
Professor
Porter
made
an
attempt
to
move
one
leg
.
To
his
surprise
,
it
responded
to
his
will
as
in
days
gone
by
.
He
now
drew
up
its
mate
and
stretched
it
forth
again
.
"
Most
remarkable
,
most
remarkable
,
"
he
murmured
.
"
Thank
God
,
Professor
,
"
whispered
Mr.
Philander
,
fervently
,
"
you
are
not
dead
,
then
?
"
