In
the
end
she
persuaded
him
to
swallow
four
tablets
of
soma
.
Five
minutes
later
roots
and
fruits
were
abolished
;
the
flower
of
the
present
rosily
blossomed
.
A
message
from
the
porter
announced
that
,
at
the
Warden
’
s
orders
,
a
Reservation
Guard
had
come
round
with
a
plane
and
was
waiting
on
the
roof
of
the
hotel
.
They
went
up
at
once
.
An
octoroon
in
Gamma
-
green
uniform
saluted
and
proceeded
to
recite
the
morning
’
s
programme
.
A
bird
’
s
-
eye
view
of
ten
or
a
dozen
of
the
principal
pueblos
,
then
a
landing
for
lunch
in
the
valley
of
Malpais
.
The
rest
-
house
was
comfortable
there
,
and
up
at
the
pueblo
the
savages
would
probably
be
celebrating
their
summer
festival
.
It
would
be
the
best
place
to
spend
the
night
.
They
took
their
seats
in
the
plane
and
set
off
.
Ten
minutes
later
they
were
crossing
the
frontier
that
separated
civilization
from
savagery
.
Uphill
and
down
,
across
the
deserts
of
salt
or
sand
,
through
forests
,
into
the
violet
depth
of
canyons
,
over
crag
and
peak
and
table
-
topped
mesa
,
the
fence
marched
on
and
on
,
irresistibly
the
straight
line
,
the
geometrical
symbol
of
triumphant
human
purpose
.
And
at
its
foot
,
here
and
there
,
a
mosaic
of
white
bones
,
a
still
unrotted
carcase
dark
on
the
tawny
ground
marked
the
place
where
deer
or
steer
,
puma
or
porcupine
or
coyote
,
or
the
greedy
turkey
buzzards
drawn
down
by
the
whiff
of
carrion
and
fulminated
as
though
by
a
poetic
justice
,
had
come
too
close
to
the
destroying
wires
.
"
They
never
learn
,
"
said
the
green
-
uniformed
pilot
,
pointing
down
at
the
skeletons
on
the
ground
below
them
.
"
And
they
never
will
learn
,
"
he
added
and
laughed
,
as
though
he
had
somehow
scored
a
personal
triumph
over
the
electrocuted
animals
.
Bernard
also
laughed
;
after
two
grammes
of
soma
the
joke
seemed
,
for
some
reason
,
good
Laughed
and
then
,
almost
immediately
,
dropped
off
to
sleep
,
and
sleeping
was
carried
over
Taos
and
Tesuque
;
over
Nambe
and
Picuris
and
Pojoaque
,
over
Sia
and
Cochiti
,
over
Laguna
and
Acoma
and
the
Enchanted
Mesa
,
over
Zuñi
and
Cibola
and
Ojo
Caliente
,
and
woke
at
last
to
find
the
machine
standing
on
the
ground
,
Lenina
carrying
the
suit
-
cases
into
a
small
square
house
,
and
the
Gamma
-
green
octoroon
talking
incomprehensibly
with
a
young
Indian
.
"
Malpais
,
"
explained
the
pilot
,
as
Bernard
stepped
out
.
"
This
is
the
rest
-
house
.
And
there
’
s
a
dance
this
afternoon
at
the
pueblo
.
He
’
ll
take
you
there
.
"
He
pointed
to
the
sullen
young
savage
.
"
Funny
,
I
expect
.
"
He
grinned
.
"
Everything
they
do
is
funny
.
"
And
with
that
he
climbed
into
the
plane
and
started
up
the
engines
.
"
Back
to
-
morrow
.
And
remember
,
"
he
added
reassuringly
to
Lenina
,
"
they
’
re
perfectly
tame
;
savages
won
’
t
do
you
any
harm
.
They
’
ve
got
enough
experience
of
gas
bombs
to
know
that
they
mustn
’
t
play
any
tricks
.
"
Still
laughing
,
he
threw
the
helicopter
screws
into
gear
,
accelerated
,
and
was
gone
.
The
mesa
was
like
a
ship
becalmed
in
a
strait
of
lion
?
coloured
dust
.
The
channel
wound
between
precipitous
banks
,
and
slanting
from
one
wall
to
the
other
across
the
valley
ran
a
streak
of
green
-
the
river
and
its
fields
.
On
the
prow
of
that
stone
ship
in
the
centre
of
the
strait
,
and
seemingly
a
part
of
it
,
a
shaped
and
geometrical
outcrop
of
the
naked
rock
,
stood
the
pueblo
of
Malpais
.
Block
above
block
,
each
story
smaller
than
the
one
below
,
the
tall
houses
rose
like
stepped
and
amputated
pyramids
into
the
blue
sky
.
At
their
feet
lay
a
straggle
of
low
buildings
,
a
criss
-
cross
of
walls
;
and
on
three
sides
the
precipices
fell
sheer
into
the
plain
.
A
few
columns
of
smoke
mounted
perpendicularly
into
the
windless
air
and
were
lost
.
"
Queer
,
"
said
Lenina
.
"
Very
queer
.
"
It
was
her
ordinary
word
of
condemnation
.
"
I
don
’
t
like
it
.
And
I
don
’
t
like
that
man
.
"
She
pointed
to
the
Indian
guide
who
had
been
appointed
to
take
them
up
to
the
pueblo
.
Her
feeling
was
evidently
reciprocated
;
the
very
back
of
the
man
,
as
he
walked
along
before
them
,
was
hostile
,
sullenly
contemptuous
.
"
Besides
,
"
she
lowered
her
voice
,
"
he
smells
.
"
