"
Precisely
what
I
am
told
,
"
said
Cavor
.
I
assisted
him
to
screw
in
the
glass
cover
of
the
manhole
,
and
then
he
pressed
a
stud
to
close
the
corresponding
blind
in
the
outer
case
.
The
little
oblong
of
twilight
vanished
.
We
were
in
darkness
.
For
a
time
neither
of
us
spoke
.
Although
our
case
would
not
be
impervious
to
sound
,
everything
was
very
still
.
I
perceived
there
was
nothing
to
grip
when
the
shock
of
our
start
should
come
,
and
I
realised
that
I
should
be
uncomfortable
for
want
of
a
chair
.
"
Why
have
we
no
chairs
?
"
I
asked
.
"
I
've
settled
all
that
,
"
said
Cavor
.
"
We
wo
n't
need
them
.
"
"
Why
not
?
"
"
You
will
see
,
"
he
said
,
in
the
tone
of
a
man
who
refuses
to
talk
.
I
became
silent
.
Suddenly
it
had
come
to
me
clear
and
vivid
that
I
was
a
fool
to
be
inside
that
sphere
.
Even
now
,
I
asked
myself
,
is
to
too
late
to
withdraw
?
The
world
outside
the
sphere
,
I
knew
,
would
be
cold
and
inhospitable
enough
for
me
--
for
weeks
I
had
been
living
on
subsidies
from
Cavor
--
but
after
all
,
would
it
be
as
cold
as
the
infinite
zero
,
as
inhospitable
as
empty
space
?
If
it
had
not
been
for
the
appearance
of
cowardice
,
I
believe
that
even
then
I
should
have
made
him
let
me
out
.
But
I
hesitated
on
that
score
,
and
hesitated
,
and
grew
fretful
and
angry
,
and
the
time
passed
.
There
came
a
little
jerk
,
a
noise
like
champagne
being
uncorked
in
another
room
,
and
a
faint
whistling
sound
.
For
just
one
instant
I
had
a
sense
of
enormous
tension
,
a
transient
conviction
that
my
feet
were
pressing
downward
with
a
force
of
countless
tons
.
It
lasted
for
an
infinitesimal
time
.
But
it
stirred
me
to
action
.
"
Cavor
!
"
I
said
into
the
darkness
,
"
my
nerve
's
in
rags
.
I
do
n't
think
--
"
I
stopped
.
He
made
no
answer
.
