At
last
,
about
five
o'clock
in
the
evening
,
the
marsh
being
cleared
,
the
soil
regained
sufficient
firmness
,
thanks
to
its
clayey
nature
;
but
they
felt
it
damp
underneath
.
Very
evidently
these
lands
lay
below
the
neighboring
rivers
,
and
the
water
ran
through
their
pores
.
At
that
time
the
heat
had
become
overwhelming
.
It
would
even
have
been
unbearable
,
if
thick
storm
clouds
had
not
interposed
between
the
burning
rays
and
the
ground
.
Distant
lightnings
began
to
rend
the
sky
and
low
rollings
of
thunder
grumbled
in
the
depths
of
the
heavens
.
A
formidable
storm
was
going
to
burst
forth
.
Now
,
these
cataclysms
are
terrible
in
Africa
:
rain
in
torrents
,
squalls
of
wind
which
the
strongest
trees
can
not
resist
,
clap
after
clap
of
thunder
,
such
is
the
contest
of
the
elements
in
that
latitude
.
Dick
Sand
knew
it
well
,
and
he
became
very
uneasy
.
They
could
not
pass
the
night
without
shelter
.
The
plain
was
likely
to
be
inundated
,
and
it
did
not
present
a
single
elevation
on
which
it
was
possible
to
seek
refuge
.
But
refuge
,
where
would
they
seek
it
in
this
low
desert
,
without
a
tree
,
without
a
bush
?
The
bowels
of
the
earth
even
would
not
give
it
.
Two
feet
below
the
surface
they
would
find
water
.
However
,
toward
the
north
a
series
of
low
hills
seemed
to
limit
the
marshy
plain
.
It
was
as
the
border
of
this
depression
of
land
.
A
few
trees
were
profiled
there
on
a
more
distant
,
clearer
belt
,
left
by
the
clouds
on
the
line
of
the
horizon
.
There
,
if
shelter
were
still
lacking
,
the
little
band
would
at
least
no
longer
risk
being
caught
in
a
possible
inundation
.
There
perhaps
was
salvation
for
all
.
"
Forward
,
my
friends
,
forward
!
"
repeated
Dick
Sand
.
"
Three
miles
more
and
we
shall
be
safer
than
in
these
bottom-lands
.
"
"
Hurry
!
hurry
!
"
cried
Hercules
.
The
brave
black
would
have
wished
to
take
that
whole
world
in
big
arms
and
carry
it
alone
.
