In
a
larger
circle
squatted
the
women
,
yelling
and
beating
upon
drums
.
It
reminded
Tarzan
of
the
Dum-Dum
,
and
so
he
knew
what
to
expect
.
He
wondered
if
they
would
spring
upon
their
meat
while
it
was
still
alive
.
The
Apes
did
not
do
such
things
as
that
.
The
circle
of
warriors
about
the
cringing
captive
drew
closer
and
closer
to
their
prey
as
they
danced
in
wild
and
savage
abandon
to
the
maddening
music
of
the
drums
.
Presently
a
spear
reached
out
and
pricked
the
victim
.
It
was
the
signal
for
fifty
others
.
Eyes
,
ears
,
arms
and
legs
were
pierced
;
every
inch
of
the
poor
writhing
body
that
did
not
cover
a
vital
organ
became
the
target
of
the
cruel
lancers
.
The
women
and
children
shrieked
their
delight
.
The
warriors
licked
their
hideous
lips
in
anticipation
of
the
feast
to
come
,
and
vied
with
one
another
in
the
savagery
and
loathsomeness
of
the
cruel
indignities
with
which
they
tortured
the
still
conscious
prisoner
.
Then
it
was
that
Tarzan
of
the
Apes
saw
his
chance
.
All
eyes
were
fixed
upon
the
thrilling
spectacle
at
the
stake
.
The
light
of
day
had
given
place
to
the
darkness
of
a
moonless
night
,
and
only
the
fires
in
the
immediate
vicinity
of
the
orgy
had
been
kept
alight
to
cast
a
restless
glow
upon
the
restless
scene
.
Gently
the
lithe
boy
dropped
to
the
soft
earth
at
the
end
of
the
village
street
.
Quickly
he
gathered
up
the
arrows
--
all
of
them
this
time
,
for
he
had
brought
a
number
of
long
fibers
to
bind
them
into
a
bundle
.
Without
haste
he
wrapped
them
securely
,
and
then
,
ere
he
turned
to
leave
,
the
devil
of
capriciousness
entered
his
heart
.
He
looked
about
for
some
hint
of
a
wild
prank
to
play
upon
these
strange
,
grotesque
creatures
that
they
might
be
again
aware
of
his
presence
among
them
.
Dropping
his
bundle
of
arrows
at
the
foot
of
the
tree
,
Tarzan
crept
among
the
shadows
at
the
side
of
the
street
until
he
came
to
the
same
hut
he
had
entered
on
the
occasion
of
his
first
visit
.
