Old
Tom
went
along
with
his
eyes
down
.
He
understood
only
too
well
why
this
opening
was
strewn
with
human
bones
.
His
companions
looked
to
the
right
,
to
the
left
,
with
an
air
of
surprise
,
as
if
they
were
crossing
an
interminable
cemetery
,
the
tombs
of
which
had
been
overthrown
by
a
cataclysm
;
but
they
passed
in
silence
.
Meanwhile
,
the
bed
of
the
rivulet
became
deeper
and
wider
at
the
same
time
.
Its
current
was
less
impetuous
.
Dick
Sand
hoped
that
it
would
soon
become
navigable
,
or
that
it
would
before
long
reach
a
more
important
river
,
tributary
to
the
Atlantic
.
Cost
what
it
might
,
the
young
novice
was
determined
to
follow
this
stream
of
water
.
Neither
did
he
hesitate
to
abandon
this
opening
;
because
,
as
ending
by
an
oblique
line
,
it
led
away
from
the
rivulet
.
The
little
party
a
second
time
ventured
through
the
dense
underwood
.
They
marched
,
ax
in
hand
,
through
leaves
and
bushes
inextricably
interlaced
.
But
if
this
vegetation
obstructed
the
ground
,
they
were
no
longer
in
the
thick
forest
that
bordered
the
coast
.
Trees
became
rare
.
Large
sheaves
of
bamboo
alone
rose
above
the
grass
,
and
so
high
that
even
Hercules
was
not
a
head
over
them
.
The
passage
of
the
little
party
was
only
revealed
by
the
movement
of
these
stalks
.
Toward
three
o'clock
in
the
afternoon
of
that
day
,
the
nature
of
the
ground
totally
changed
.
Here
were
long
plains
,
which
must
have
been
entirely
inundated
in
the
rainy
season
.
The
earth
,
now
more
swampy
,
was
carpeted
by
thick
mosses
,
beneath
charming
ferns
.
Should
it
be
diversified
by
any
steep
ascents
,
they
would
see
brown
hematites
appear
,
the
last
deposits
of
some
rich
vein
of
mineral
.
Dick
Sand
then
recalled
--
and
very
fortunately
--
what
he
had
read
in
"
Livingstone
's
Travels
.
"
More
than
once
the
daring
doctor
had
nearly
rested
in
these
marshes
,
so
treacherous
under
foot
.
"
Listen
to
me
,
my
friends
,
"
said
he
,
going
ahead
.
"
Try
the
ground
before
stepping
on
it
.
