"
This
will
never
do
,
"
said
Sir
Henry
hoarsely
;
"
the
lamp
will
soon
go
out
.
Let
us
see
if
we
ca
n't
find
the
spring
that
works
the
rock
.
"
We
sprang
forward
with
desperate
energy
,
and
,
standing
in
a
bloody
ooze
,
began
to
feel
up
and
down
the
door
and
the
sides
of
the
passage
.
But
no
knob
or
spring
could
we
discover
.
"
Depend
on
it
,
"
I
said
,
"
it
does
not
work
from
the
inside
;
if
it
did
Gagool
would
not
have
risked
trying
to
crawl
underneath
the
stone
.
It
was
the
knowledge
of
this
that
made
her
try
to
escape
at
all
hazards
,
curse
her
.
"
"
At
all
events
,
"
said
Sir
Henry
,
with
a
hard
little
laugh
,
"
retribution
was
swift
;
hers
was
almost
as
awful
an
end
as
ours
is
likely
to
be
.
We
can
do
nothing
with
the
door
;
let
us
go
back
to
the
treasure
room
.
"
We
turned
and
went
,
and
as
we
passed
it
I
perceived
by
the
unfinished
wall
across
the
passage
the
basket
of
food
which
poor
Foulata
had
carried
.
I
took
it
up
,
and
brought
it
with
me
to
the
accursed
treasure
chamber
that
was
to
be
our
grave
.
Then
we
returned
and
reverently
bore
in
Foulata
's
corpse
,
laying
it
on
the
floor
by
the
boxes
of
coin
.
Next
we
seated
ourselves
,
leaning
our
backs
against
the
three
stone
chests
which
contained
the
priceless
treasure
.
"
Let
us
divide
the
food
,
"
said
Sir
Henry
,
"
so
as
to
make
it
last
as
long
as
possible
.
"
Accordingly
we
did
so
.
It
would
,
we
reckoned
,
make
four
infinitesimally
small
meals
for
each
of
us
,
enough
,
say
,
to
support
life
for
a
couple
of
days
.
Besides
the
"
biltong
,
"
or
dried
game-flesh
,
there
were
two
gourds
of
water
,
each
of
which
held
not
more
than
a
quart
.
"
Now
,
"
said
Sir
Henry
grimly
,
"
let
us
eat
and
drink
,
for
tomorrow
we
die
.
"
We
each
ate
a
small
portion
of
the
"
biltong
,
"
and
drank
a
sip
of
water
.
Needless
to
say
,
we
had
but
little
appetite
,
though
we
were
sadly
in
need
of
food
,
and
felt
better
after
swallowing
it
.
Then
we
got
up
and
made
a
systematic
examination
of
the
walls
of
our
prison-house
,
in
the
faint
hope
of
finding
some
means
of
exit
,
sounding
them
and
the
floor
carefully
.
There
was
none
.
It
was
not
probable
that
there
would
be
any
to
a
treasure
chamber
.
