No
doubt
Alvez
was
about
to
ask
the
queen
why
he
was
honored
by
her
visit
,
but
the
magician
did
not
give
him
time
.
Making
the
crowd
recede
so
as
to
leave
a
large
space
free
around
him
,
he
recommenced
his
pantomime
with
still
greater
animation
.
He
pointed
to
the
clouds
,
he
threatened
them
,
he
exorcised
them
;
he
made
a
sign
as
if
he
could
first
stop
them
,
and
then
scatter
them
.
His
enormous
cheeks
were
puffed
out
,
and
he
blew
on
this
mass
of
heavy
vapors
as
if
he
had
the
strength
to
disperse
them
.
Then
,
standing
upright
,
he
seemed
to
intend
stopping
them
in
their
course
,
and
one
would
have
said
that
,
owing
to
his
gigantic
height
,
he
could
have
seized
them
.
The
superstitious
Moini
,
"
overcome
"
by
the
acting
of
this
tall
comedian
,
could
no
longer
control
herself
.
Cries
escaped
her
.
She
raved
in
her
turn
,
and
instinctively
repeated
the
magician
's
gestures
.
The
courtiers
and
the
crowd
followed
her
example
,
and
the
mute
's
guttural
sounds
were
lost
amid
those
songs
;
cries
,
and
yells
which
the
native
language
furnishes
with
so
much
prodigality
.
Did
the
clouds
cease
to
rise
on
the
eastern
horizon
and
veil
the
tropical
sun
?
Did
they
vanish
before
the
exorcisms
of
this
new
wizard
?
No
.
And
just
at
this
moment
,
when
the
queen
and
her
people
imagined
that
they
had
appeased
the
evil
spirits
that
had
watered
them
with
so
many
showers
,
the
sky
,
somewhat
clear
since
daybreak
,
became
darker
than
ever
.
Large
drops
of
rain
fell
pattering
on
the
ground
.

Then
a
sudden
change
took
place
in
the
crowd
.
They
then
saw
that
this
sorcerer
was
worth
no
more
than
the
others
.
The
queen
's
brows
were
frowning
.
They
understood
that
he
at
least
was
in
danger
of
losing
his
ears
.
The
natives
had
contracted
the
circle
around
him
;
fists
threatened
him
,
and
they
were
about
to
punish
him
,
when
an
unforeseen
incident
changed
the
object
of
their
evil
intentions
.
The
magician
,
who
overlooked
the
whole
yelling
crowd
,
stretched
his
arms
toward
one
spot
in
the
enclosure
.
The
gesture
was
so
imperious
that
all
turned
to
look
at
it
.
Mrs.
Weldon
and
little
Jack
,
attracted
by
the
noise
and
the
clamor
,
had
just
left
their
hut
.
The
magician
,
with
an
angry
gesture
,
had
pointed
to
them
with
his
left
hand
,
while
his
right
was
raised
toward
the
sky
.

They
!
it
was
they
'
!
It
was
this
white
woman
--
it
was
her
child
--
they
were
causing
all
this
evil
.
They
had
brought
these
clouds
from
their
rainy
country
,
to
inundate
the
territories
of
Kazounde
.
It
was
at
once
understood
.
Queen
Moini
,
pointing
to
Mrs.
Weldon
,
made
a
threatening
gesture
.
The
natives
,
uttering
still
more
terrible
cries
,
rushed
toward
her
.
Mrs.
Weldon
thought
herself
lost
,
and
clasping
her
son
in
her
arms
,
she
stood
motionless
as
a
statue
before
this
over-excited
crowd
.
